Aquarium Powerheads and Fish Tank Pumps

A powerhead is a submersible water pump generally used for water circulation within an aquarium or to power a protein skimmer.

Powerheads are available in a number of different sizes with flow rates as low as 18 gallons per hour (GPH) to 5,283 GPH, and everything in between.

Customer favorites include Tunze Stream powerheads, EcoTech Marine VorTech powerheads, Maxi-Jet and Hydor Koralia powerheads.

Powerheads can also be used as return pumps from sumps, refugiums or wet/dry filter systems. Mag-Drive and Eheim pumps in particular are highly respected for their quality, dependability and power.

For more information on creating flow in an aquarium, please refer to Producing Water Movement in the Marine Depot Knowledgebase.
