Powerhead Question

I have a 60x20x18 100g FOWLR tank with (2) Koralia #2 powerheads. My question is: Are those powerheads enough to create movement in the water? Should I upgrade to Koralia 3 or even 4? Currently I have a V. lion, Jeweled Moray, Goldentail Moray, and a lonely damsel. I will be upgrading to a 180g. in about 6-8 months. Thanks in advance

Add 1 Koralia #3 or replace both of them? What about when i do the upgrade to a 180g?

Add to what you already have.
Get a canister with a spray bar for the surface, and keep the power heads directed towards the rock. A canister is great for adding media like carbon and phosban...Just using it for water flow will work great, you seldom need to clean it if used that way.
The best thing about a spray bar is that it looks almost invisible in the back of the tank and it spreads water nearly all the way across the top.

As Flower said...add to what you have.....and when you upgrade just get another K3
and I also agree with Flower about the spray bars....I have 2 on my 225G...one on each end...moves water across the top great
