Powerheads

[ponokareefer]

I was contemplating an idea, and was wondering if anyone has tried this before or if I am not seeing any major issues this might cause. I was thinking of replacing my current water pump in my sump for a much more powerful one. I would then put either Y-joints on my returns, or better yet, a spray bar, like this one at J&L Aquatics.

Personally, I really hate the look of powerheads and the extra cords in the tanks. Also, I have anemones, so the issue with getting sucked in comes up. I have put on guards/sponges to prevent this, but then you pretty much have to clean the sponges daily, or they get really built up, and the amount of flow coming out of them gets reduced drastically.
I know the additional cost of a really powerful pump would be a big draw back. But the decreased cleaning and overall appearance would be much better.
