TRE Is the power heads just a bad brand ? or i need more power . I can get Two aquaclear 40 's for $6 bucks more .

But the reason i thought the 30's would work is because i will be adding a HOB filter Down the road . Like a Aquaclear 110 or Aquamaster 600 (both Around 500 gph). So i tought i would have alot of flow and didnt need really powerful power heads ?

Yes I agree any sand i buy after the 30 pound live bag will be just be the dry sand . Plus i need live sand becuase iam going start my cycle with the 30 pounds of live sand . and 16 pounds of the dead rock above ? Will that work , Then in 2 weeks i can afford the 25 pounds of live fiji rock . I have patience .

What do you think? Thanks
