large water mover
What type of inexpensive (emphasis on inexpensive) equipment can I use to move large quantities of water in my aquarium?
Thanks |

Trash can with wheels is pretty cheap. Could you provide more details as to, what you are trying to move where?

I think he is talking about power heads, or wave makers.
How cheap are we talking? You could steal a boat oar and stir your tank with that. Free |

Your hand is free, and if you have kids just pay them a dollor to stir it.

Lol, oops, I use Tunze streams and really like them. Everyone I know seems to use the Hydor Koralia and they seem very very good for the price. If you have a limited budget the koralias would be a good option.

Maxi jet Mods are the best for the price IMO. 1200's with the algae free mods should be around $40 each online and push ~ 1600 gph for ~ 20 watts.

You could use air bubbler only on one side of the tank. The bubbles will cause the water to rise only on that side. The other side will sink. A nice circular motion. The air pump you need to pay for but the air is free.
