I am getting read to move from my 125 down to my 55. I have 5 power heads. What I need to know is which ones to keep and one I do keep them where is best suited in the tank. I have 3 Penquin 550's
1 1140 Penquin and one 226 powersweep. I plan on moving it today so input would be really appreciated. Thanks :D

What are you going to have in the tank? I would use most of them for water movement i have 5 in my 60 gal and there all over the place i just use the rock to hide them. I have one at each end of the tank pointed toward the middle and the top for surface aggitation 2 more at each end pointed towads each other about at half the height of the tank and one in the middle that points toward the front of the glass. The fish seem to love it and after a little adjustment they dont blow any sand around. I am moving about 1400 gals per hour and have 0 probs with bad algea growth.
