26-02-2006 15:51 by maureen benson	Can anyone advse on the best powerhead for a 60 gall. tropical tank. Will I need a separate airpump, if so, which is the quietest? Are there any piston ones still available?
26-02-2006 17:15 by Ray	Hello Maureen,I take it that you want to run an undergravel filter? if that is so you will want a head with an output of around 400 litres per hour, you will not need an airpump,just position the power head outlet at surface level, hyflo piston pumps I think are still made but not seen any for a long time.

I'm a retailer and sell all kinds of pump and have found the new TETRA pumps to be the quitest around at the moment. As for powerhead a small "underworld Maxijet" would be a good bet. PS most powerheads come with a little venturi attachment that can draw air in to the tank to oxygenate it anyway... good luck!
