Which powerhead to get?

[vikubz]

I am looking at beefing up my flow in a 55 gallon. Thinking of getting a pair of the Seio 620 models, but have also seen the Rio Hyperflow powerheads. Which is the more reliable?


Thanks,
Mark

I have 2 Seio 1500's in my 125 and really like them.

I think the general consensus is that just about anything made by rio is garbage. Thread after thread of problems, even with the new stuff.

I've heard a lot of negative on Rio, but I've got a 1700 that I've had good luck with, so I was tempted by the Rio high flow models. Seio it is then.

Spend a little extra money and get a Tunze Nanostream. I have a 6025 in my 58 RR and absolutely love it. You won't be sorry. Call Tony at Reef Exotics. About $65.
