How to achieve enough flow with softies and lps without killing them?

[kgood1]

Thanks for all the help, Folks. I ended up buying 4 Tunze 6100's and a 7095 controller. It's still not as much flow as I'd like, but a big improvement and the lps aren't getting hammered. I removed all the other powerheads except the Tunze 6125 and it's a cleaner look too.

what are you doing with your koralia 4's?

I think the baster is a great idea. I also stole an idea from a buddy of mine. I have 3/4" pvc about 24" long, I zip tied a Maxijet 400 to it, plug it in and blow all the detritus around so it can be picked up by the overflows. I'm able to reach the tough places. Same idea as your's only mines lazier.

I'm going to keep 'em awhile in case I need more flow somewhere.
