Another vote for the Koralias over any other kind of power head (there are two in the tank I referenced). We have had one fatality with a small cuttle that apparently tried to catch something on one and lost its tentacle and a couple of suspect arm tips on octos but they are by far the most used in an octopus tank (anything else need octo proofing). I try to shelter the intakes by surround them with rock. I am not sure if this matters though. Two of my briareus have used them to aid in sucker shedding and
I was able to video one incident. Be careful not to oversize them. I bought the largest for our big tank (deep 140 gallon) and they are way to powerful. I just picked up 4 of the new models at a huge price savings (they may have been accidently priced because when I went back to look and post a note the price had doubled) and they are supposed to run at half the power consumption of the original models.
