Powerhead placement

[MrIan1077]

I took out my 2 bubblewands because,my oscars would love to rip them up.Now I put an Aqua Clear powerhead 70 in the tank.I have it mounted in the back directly in the center.I have 2-110 Aqua Clear filters on either side with a Rena Filstar Xp2 in the corner as well.Is this a good spot to put the powerhead? If not,what would be you recommendation?It's a 75 gallon tank with 2 healthy adult oscars.

Sounds like the perfect spot exactly where I have mine. I guess that old axiom is right. Great minds think alike.

[OinKY]

Sounds good.Really the only logical spot for it

2-110 Aqua Clear filters on either side with a Rena Filstar Xp2 in the corner as well.

My kind of filtration

It felt right when I put it in the center,so I guess I'll keep it there.Thanks for the feedback.

My kind of filtration

I love to go OVERBOARD on filtration.People always ask why so much filtration?I tell them that I have 2 puppy dogs in a tank? You ought to see their faces after I say that.I explain that I have 2 oscars and they need all of that.

Should have seen their faces when I hooked the pool filter to the 135g for some flow tests.Of course,now I have a bigger pool filter to play with

YES......MORE POWER....HAHAHAHAHAHAHA ..You gotta love it.You can't even tell that I have water in my tank because,it's crystal clear.

I get the same effect with over 1000 gph of canister filtration in my 125. I prefer almost too much circulation in big cichlid tanks.

Moving this to General as it's more of a circulation/placement question than a review.

I'm still talking about this with my wife.I love the idea and she says that I would be crazy to do that.

[OinKY]

Melissa...eat your heart out guys...actually suggested setting the 135g up on the porch with the filter off the current pool for a while so I can sort filtration systems.
Note: See porch

She's a keeper
