will this be good in a bow front 26 gallon tank

Hey Michael,Not at all. Extremely too powerful.I bought two for my 75 gallon for flow, i setup one and immediately took it out after 30 sec., made a complete mess of my tank. These things must be made for like 200 gallon tanks.just get a good canister filter, eheim classics are the best. you'll get plenty of flow with em.good luck,-anthony

Yes, I have one in my 75g and its rather intense for the size/price. It alone will force a strong current. In a 26g, I would imagine that this PH will be causing some serious flow. Owned for a year, no problems.

i am assuming u r doig a nano reef if a regular powerhead will do the trick try aquatop 400gph should be more than enuff power to eliminate any and all dead spots...make sure u get an aquaclear pad i get the 110 pad and cut it to put over theintae of the power head that will keep things out of the intake strainer and yes u couls ude it but 800 gallons per hour would be to much in my humble oinion

this powerhead works really well. just depends on what animals u have in the tank. I have turltes. they're constantly knocking it off the glass so in hindsight I would get one with magnetic mounts instead of suction. other than that the pump works well

Maybe look at the Hydor Koralia Nano 240 Aquarium Circulation Pump 240 GPH , or the 425 model...that is what I am looking at for my 46 gal.

I think it will do fine if you only have one. If you have a sanded though it will blow the sand around.

This is the first of this style that I have owned. But it is powerful. I have mine in a 55 gallon and it moves the water around good. My tank is fresh water. My answer would be yes but I'm no expert on the subject.

it might be a little to much. I have it in a 29g currently and it's okay for my convict breeding pair. I tried to put it in a 20 long planted tank before and it was overkill. hope this helps

Hi Jody, This eheim classic is actually the eheim 2215. Yes it is good for up to 90 gallon tank.

Get one of these (good enough for medium plant growth) plus a 48" Ray2 Daylight (much brighter colors and adds some additional light for that 90 gallon). I'm running this exact combo on my 72 bow front, and the daylight is a little too much to have on all the time for the loaches...

I have it in a freshwater cichlid tank and it is ok. I would assume brackish would work also.

I suppose it could go in your bedroom. I'm not sure how much it matters what room of your home it goes in. Yes it can handle a 39 gallon tank but i do not recommend this product because it didn't work very well. I would buy something a little better and save yourself the headache. Hydor is a good brand. Had good luck with them

Depends on what you put in the tank and where you have it directed. I mean if you have Mollies or something like that it might be to much but if you have African Chiclids it is GREAT. If you have Plecos Like a Galaxy Vampire Or a Golden Hetrodon for example they come from the rivers of South America and LOVE fast moving waters so again it depends

I have this on an Aqueon 36 gal Bowfront and it fits great 30" wide-- so no.

I kept mine horizontal for a year, with no problem at all. Eheim Jager's are a very good product from my experience. I took a chance and kept my 200W heater in a sump-well that had 4 tanks connected to it, for a total of 185 gallons, and it handled the work flawlessly. For a single tank set-up, I would follow the manufacturer's guidelines, which in your case is to use a 250W heater.

For the bow fronts I'm accustomed to it sounds like your tank would be a 72 Gallon. So the 72bf all glass versa top would be the right one. If your tank is an aqueon then the 72bf top would be right. The 36bf top I ordered was actually aqueon brand.

I would recommend every 3 months. Make sure you use chem pure elite. The forum seem to say it works better. They also use purigen 100. I have a 34 gallon. Reef sanctuary is a great forum to learn about tanks. I am also running a reef set up.

That wattage will be sufficient for your aquarium. 200 to250 handles a 55 gallon salt water tank easily.

I have only one light on my 72 gallon bowfront (48" long, 24" deep) and it looks great; however, the far sides are not brightly lit. My corals are doing very well but I have softies, zoas, mushrooms etc. Two lights would be ideal and I would imagine a necessity for sps corals, clams etc.

It all depends on what you have in your tank and how much flow you would like or need I have two of these on either side of my tank and it's a 26g nano softie/lps reef tank. If you have a fish only or a freshwater tank and just looking to had some circulation in the tank than this should be fine although if this is the only pump your adding I would suggest the next higher model up I believe it's around 420 gph? Hope this answers your question

I ran mine in a 20 long and it worked fine for me. I have torch , acans , blastomusa , zoanthids , brain favia , leptastrea , daisy polyp corals with plenty of flow for them. I switched to a 30 gallon and I need 2 for that tank.

Consider looking at the Fluval 106 which is good for tanks up to 25 gallons.

I apologize but, the 46 gallon bowfront hood is currently out of stock at this time. If you have any other questions, please send us another message. Richelle H 1-800-Petsupplies

I have mine in a 77 gallon tank and it works fine but, I would guess for a tank that size that you may require something bigger or maybe 2 of them. Also depends on type of fish of course.
