They make them for nano tanks all the way up to 1000g setups. It's one of those bells and whistles you can get if you like.
Finally going saltwater!!!!

I'm really glad i got the biocube stand and not some other. That thing holds ALOT of crap, let me tell you. LOL I have mine stock full of stuff and there always seems like there's room for more.

Man I can't even think about sleep!!! My tank is somewhere out there and it's on it's way here!! Here's the power head I got is this on ok? I read up on it and it got good reviews. The place I went to didn't deal with other suggested brands. This one here you can adjust the flow.

Well, mine isn't adjustable, but that is way overkill for a 29. Get some koralias (or I guess probably A koralia). You're in on the group buy, check out BRS on Tuesday afternoon. How much did you pay for the Tunze? they're like $90 new. The smaller Koralias are more like $25 or so.

Yea just order them from dr foster smith man. Put a 480 or 2x240s of korlias + your reef test kit and salt water test kit on your order and the shipping would be free.

The koralia nano 240 and 425 were on YouTube but I am not sure which one is better. They were both in biocubes. The koralia nano 425 is 425gph, the nanostream 6045 is 396gph. So I am confused as to why the 6045 would be overkill if it is less than the koralia.

Look at it this way. You spent $100+ on a powerhead that is capable of pushing out 1200gph. It uses 7w. The 240 uses 3.5w. You also won't be 'restricting' it any. The other thing is that the Tunze I have are a little noisy unless I put a rubber piece between the mount and the glass. I just think it makes a lot more sense to use that $75 towards something more useful than having a powerhead that is capable of pushing 1200gph in a 29g tank.
