    Hi, all, I'm looking at improving the flow in my tank with the least amount of powerheads. Right now I have four maxi-jet 1200s running and the return is a mag 12. So I figure I've got around 1800gph. I don't like the cluttered look of the four maxijets in the tank so I was considering adding a...
