WTB Powerheads

[kbrew]

I have a 36 gal bowfront tank. My daughter and I are going to give salt water a try. Interested in fish only to start and may add some corals when we get it established. Looking for 2 powerheads with a controller for the tank, at least that's what I have been told we need. Thanks

If you are going FIsh Only, you should not need Powerheads, as those increase flow for corals.

A controller is also not a "must have". I would go to the main forum page, and read some of the "getting started" stickies.

Welcome!

Disagree, adding extra flow, imo, helps with "filtration" and prevents any dead spot for detritus to settle. IMO, the more flow the better for water clarity.

agreed, controller is not a must have, but fun to play with the first couple of weeks

Powerheads are important for biological filtration if you have rock / sand
