Endlers + current

[NatureFish]

Will Endlers livebearers be okay with a powerhead in their tank? It's ten gallons.

I'd say a powerhead around 100gph will be just fine for them.

What need are you trying to meet with the ph?
Also what does your filtration consist of?
I currently keep enlers in a 10g & I've found that excessive flow pushes them around to much..
I use a sponge filter along with a simple aqueon hob for filtration..along with the endlers I also keep tangerines(shrimp)in this tank..

Caleb,do you keep currently or have you kept in the past any endlers?
Wondering...ime with them they're not the strongest swimmers&if you've used a powerhead in a 10g or similar to so what was your xp in doing so?

I have a powerhead in a 10g rated for 180GPH. It's all about you position it. You can use decor or plants to lesson the flow of needed. X10 turnover isn't that bad. I'd call it a healthy current.

My filter is an HOB...I can't remember who its by, but I'm pretty sure it's by aqueon. I can't check at the moment because I'm not there but it's made for a 20-29. I have a sponge over the intake so the flow is toned down a bit. It's got a filter bag with some anti-ammonia and something else. I'm so tired I can't remember hahahahahaha! But anyway, its got a bit of flow. A powerhead is definitely not essential in this tank and honestly I didn't think it was such a good idea but thought I would ask anyway because I love the way plants sway next to a nice powerhead! However I don't want to cause any future fish any discomfort or stress.
