Default Vortech Pump question

Hey guys,

I got good news, my ammonia is down and so far things are going well.

I recently (today) got an Ecotech Vortech MP10ESw powerhead. So far it works great and I was able to put it in sleep mode. It seems to be well installed. No vibration sound, granted on full power it does hum, but I'm assuming it's normal. Anyways, back to my question, I have a 33 gallon and as I read on the Ecotech site, one pump should be enough. I was wondering, do you agree? Should I keep one of my Hydor 750 plugged in? Should I pick up another Vortech and set it as a slave? On max power it does move a lot of the detritus around. Right now I left one Hydor plugged in because I've been told that too little circulation will lead to heartache.

What do you recommend? I think I found some in town for $219.99, which is really interesting.

Thanks,
Ren
