ok first off ...i hate power heads...they do give a tank a natural look. but i under stand that they are a thing you must have....
so what are some of the better ones out there?

i need somthing to move the water a little better than it is moving now.

i have a 90 gal tank with a powerhead in one corner and a max flow in the other.

my problem i am having is my livrock blocks some water flow and i have "dead spots" in the tank that stuff gathers in at the bottom.

any ideas? also links to where i can buy one.

thanks

You dont need powerheads. For the prive of a mag 7 or mag 9 you could set up a nice closed loop on your tank. It can be done thru drilled bulkheads or right over the top of the tank. Will get rid of your PH and give you the extra flow you need
