welcome to the site. you will learn so much here. when i started my tank 10 or 11 months ago i spent a few thousand bucks on usless junk and fish, then i found this site and i now have a thriving 125.
i know it will seem like you are buying things all over again becaus your LFS told you to buy something else but any time you ask the LFS a question keep in your mind they want your money. WE dont. It is a great hobby and look foward to seeing pics and read of your adventure good luck

Any recommendations on a good power head?? I have a fluval 205 which has 110 GPH flow rate but using the formula I should have a flow rate in the 500....Thanks!

So is it better to get two small one or can I just pick up a koralias 2 or 3 and can you have too much flow.....I see the Koralias 3 is rated for 850 GPH
