Fish only powerhead?

So I have a 20g long tank with 2 clowns and a cleaner shrimp. I use an aqueon 75 to add floss and carbon. I also have a powerhead that I control with WiFi switches.

I was wondering, is it ok to have the powerhead come on and off every 30 mins or so to give a little diversity?

Or will that stress the fish out?
 
It will be fine but depending on what powerhead it is it might wear out faster. Some powerheads aren't made to be turned on and off with a timer.
