Take a look at the Vortech MP40, cleaner install(no wires in tank and smaller footprint) and has multiple controll options. If you are looking at the Tunze stuff I think you will find there is not that great a price difference.

Hey that vortech is an awesome looking powerhead, no wires in the tank, eternal motor, and big blades to push water. Where can a person buy these? I cant find any sights that carry them. Another question to, anyone know what the best heater is? I was thinkin ill get 2 250 watt heaters, but i prefer really nice ones.

J&L Carries them, check out their site on the vendor forums.

I run 2 250s in my 90, but they are hardly ever on because of the heat coming from the internal return pump, metal halides and other powerheads in the tank. I maintain a temp of 78.5 plus or minus a degree
