Increasing flow ? PIC
So, I need more flow in my tank. I am tired of the power heads. I don't want to go thru the trouble of drilling more holes for a closed loop. I saw the diagrams of the diy closed loop that goes over the back. This seems easier to me . I can fit the whole thing behind the rocks and just have to run the cord out and over the back. Let me know if you think this is a decent alternative to unsightly power heads.
