I suggest looking for a good second hand unit that might be the only way. All the best. Keith Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.

Looking for cheap, I'd go with ordering online, either [link=http://www.bigalsonline.com]http://www.bigalsonline.com" style="COLOR: #EB4288[/link] or [link=http://www.thatfishplace.com]http://www.thatfishplace.com" style="COLOR: #EB4288[/link]. I'm quite pleased with big als service. ^_^ [hr width='40%'] "Ah, yes," said the toad. "You've got Nac Mac Feegles!"

How big is the tank, how much water you want it to move... and cheap? good powerheads are not cheap but in the long run those stand up to the use and almost never malfunction. A well cared powerhead might last moooooooore than 10 years.

I paid about £20 UK for mine (around $38 US). Excellent units. Even if this sounds a bit pricey to you, it's worth it, because they're robust.
