Looking for a Water Pump.....

.....to circulate the water on the bottom of my 150 Tall Fat Boy. There is waste down there that is not picked up by the 2 filters I am using and it is a pain to siphon so I need more water movement on the bottom. This tank is 30 inches deep. huh

FYI. The reason I got a tank this deep is to eventually house my "Wild & F1 Altum Angels". |^| |^| |^| |^| |^|

Thanks. That's exactly what I was looking for. Maybe I'll but 2 of the 1200s and call it a day. I will need to spend 4 dollars more for free postage. lol |^| |^| |^| |^| |^|
