What does a powerhead do in an aquarium?

A powerhead moves water around inside your tank. It helps create flow, which supports filtration, spreads out heat, and keeps oxygen levels up.

What size powerhead do I need for my fish tank?

It depends on your tank size and setup. A good starting point is choosing a powerhead that can move five to 10 times your tank's volume per hour.

What is the difference between a fish tank pump and a powerhead?

A pump usually pushes water through equipment like a filter, while a powerhead moves water inside the tank to improve flow and circulation.

Where should I place a powerhead in my aquarium?

Try placing it near the top or along a side wall to create steady flow across the tank. You might need to adjust the angle or position to avoid strong currents or dead spots.
