Hi all,

I have a 28 gallon bow front aquarium which has pulsing Xenia and mushrooms with a couple of clown fish. My power head just bit the dust and I was wondering what I should replace it with and how many I actually need. I have the pulsing Xenia all throughout the tank so I do not know how much circulation I actually need. I was only running 1 Hydor Korilla power head before but with all the Xenia in the tank the power head was right next to some of the Xenia. I did clear out some of the Xenia this past weekend but still looking to see which power head should be placed in the tank and how many are needed.

Thanks,

Glenn
 
This is a question more about flow in the system. You'd want around 20x the turnover in gallons per hour in a softie/polyp system. This can be accomplished with one powerhead, but using multiple helps create a more natural/chaotic flow in the system.
