The 20 would be preferable, but I think you need more flow.

About how many gph would I need? Is there a limit for gph in my 20 gallon?

I just think you need a larger powerhead. Something in the 130-200 gph range would probably work in a 20 high.

Thanks for the replies, I'll try to post up images of my Gastromyzon Ctenocephalus(?) as soon I know how to.

Hmmmm.....interesting. Jim will want to see this. The body markings are typical Gastromyzon scitulus, but the dorsal appears more ctenocephalus.

Then the caudal has markings that are not typical of either species, but tend more towards ctenocephalus. Most interesting. Any more pics of it?

Yeah, that's why I don't know what it is, I checked the loach index on loaches.com but it wasn't there either.

He's only an inch long, shows how small the powerhead is.

I see why you were so confused. That is very interesting. Is this the only one you have like this?
