Hillstream Manifold Pumps?

Post by kirktheorc » Fri Nov 25, 2011 1:35 am

Hi Everyone,

I'm looking to set up my 55 gallon breeder as a hillstream biotype. I've read a lot about the hillstream manifold and want to build one for myself. I'm running into a stumbling block trying to pick out a set of powerheads though. I've had no luck researching online because I want something I can tie into the PVC manifold. Does anyone else have any suggestions on what pumps work or how they've built their manifolds?

Thanks in advance!

Ive heard the acuaclear 70's are good. Also have you considered a wavemaker? they create a great amount of current.
