These compact water pumps fulfill a variety of uses in aquarium keeping. They can be utilized to simulate the flow of tidal currents and waves in an artificial marine environment, or they can reproduce the rippling action of a river or

They are designed to run 24/7. This constant on and off can damage or destroy some powerheads. I would only use Aquarium Systems or Hagen powerheads for this type of usage.

Some will last more than five years (uncommon), but even they are generally "tired" and only able to provide reduced flow. Most have a useful lifespan of less than 5 years. While we are on the topic of failure and modest construct what about shock hazards? Good heavens, it is amazing and frightfully common how many people have gotten a shock from a faulty powerhead!

SE vs DE
I did a search but my searching skills suck I guess. I'm trying to figure out if DE is worth the cost over SE for a dual setup over a 75 or a 90 gallon tank, haven't decided yet, but I obviously want the most light for the least money :) DE bulbs are more expensive (seems .
