Ordering My Light, Is This Ok?

[tehauthority]

After all my research I think I'm gonna drop some money and get this,

- 30 inch 2x65 Watt Current USA PowerCompact Orbit Fixture

its 178.99 on www.marinedepot.com

Which seems ok considering some places are selling it for 300.

Now,,, after checking to make sure this is ok.

Seriously, what kind of power head do I need, and do I need more than one? I have a 29 gallon, that this is all going in, and really don't feel like spending a TON on a powerhead so if someone can just tell me a good one that I can probably get off that website that would be great, especially because right now I'm qualified for free shipping. So I want to get it with this,

Hydor and Seio make good, cheap powerheads. For your size tank one or two Seio M620 (not sure about the model number, just remember: the smallest one) would work. I have not tried Koralia so cannot comment on performance, but anecdotally they seem great.

Ok, I just ordered the light listed above,,, and I ordered Hydor Koralia 1 ,,,, 28 bucks, and it's 400gph,, should be ok? Anyway I look forward to getting my light so I can add my sand, and powerhead and eventually get my live rock

You may find that you'll need more flow if you do end up keeping corals in the tank. at this point, I'd just throw what you have in the tank and see what the flow is like. Just be prepared for needing a second koralia 1
