Powerheads verses anemones

E

What manufacturer is everyone using for powerheads for some water movement? And what we using to protect against anemones from getting sucked in? I just had one that got sucked in, I was lucky I guess, He was hurt but I believe he'll be ok. He's moving around pretty good. Hopefully he learned his lesson.

I would use a Maxi Jet. IMO they are one of the more reliable powerheads. They have a strainer that isn't too horrible looking. I would think that would help with anemones getting sucked in. Another idea would be to not use the powerhead until the anemone settles in.

I have the Maxi Jets, and twice now,in 2 years, I have had anemones who were galavanting about looking for who knows what, get sucked up by them. The strainer does help so they don't get totally destroyed. I haven't tried any other brand though...
