Small power heads for nanos

Lets get a list of small power heads that can be used in nanos of 10g or less.

The Eheim Compact 300 is what I plan on using in my 2.5g unless I find something smaller.

Try those pumps they sell in those tacky water fountain things they sell at the drug stores. They work fine, and if you find one on clearance they are only a few bucks, the LFS was selling them for a killer profit in Greensboro, NC. Look for a broken/damaged display fountain and offer them $5 for it, they often will sell it to you, thinking you are a moron for buying a broken piece of junk.

I have had better luck with my micro hang on filter for water movement on my 2.5 gallon - it does not clog up, ever.

The mini pumps from the water fountain things are the only pumps I can keep in my 24 gallon seahorse tank too - all the other minis blow the seahorses all over the place, too much flow.
