Avery Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 I would like to get more flow into my Fluval Spec V (5 gallons). Does anyone have recommendations on a wave maker or powerhead for a tank this small? I would like to get the MP10 but I think it might be overkill on a tank this small.

PaulS.46122 Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 I've seen where people use the MP10 on tanks that small but they have to keep the power down low. Another option is a Jebao PP4, but again you need to keep the flow rate low. What types of coral are you keeping? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulS.46122 Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 If thats what you want to keep, I would just upgrade the return pump and keep a powerhead out of the display. JMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMHO Yea that sounds like a better idea, I wasn’t sure if there were other return pumps that would fit. It would be nice to keep as much space in the display as possible.

There might be some info on there that fits your needs. https://www.nano-reef.com/search/?q=Fluval EVO 5&fromCSE=1#gsc.tab=0&gsc.q=Fluval EVO 5&gsc.page=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
