Most choose wave makers over powerheads just because they don't suck up your creatures as much. Hydors are known to reverse for no reason ??
Not sure what you mean by fan either.
I run a 'gyre' in my tanks. It does have a different shaped fan then most. It is like a paper towel tube sideways with rotary blades.
I like the Jeboa CP 25 for tanks like yours and the CP 40 for 75 and up.
4 modes and an adjustable pulse [wave].
I have 2 of the jeboas.1 each of the 25 and 40 and think they are pretty good for buck. Compare to Maxspect gyre .
