Question Power Sweep Powerheads

Has anyone used the Power Sweep Powerheads? Do they work? or will I just be wasting my money? Thanks Chris

Christopher,
For the money they work pretty good. The draw back is they have to be cleaned quite frequently or the rotating mechanism will bind.If you have the patience and time to do routine cleanings of them you will probably be happy.HTH
Ryan

Hi Christopher,
I had one and kept it clean but after a month or so it stopped working completely. FWIW I say get a different powerhead instead. I have also read of other people having problems with these.

The best way to go is with the sea swirls but they are about 150.00 each. I have two in my 125 gal and they are awesome!
