Best Way To Use A Powerhead

[MarvinWillis]

Should i use it where the tube comes out hte water and supply bubbles or just makei t where theres a current and where should i position the powerhead?

What fish do you have? Some like bubbles over current. But a power head is supposed to made a current, hence power head.

How strong is that power head? How strong is the current. I want to get a power head for my Leporinus but I don't want to get one that is too strong. I have a 55 gal tank also. The reason I'm asking is because I have other fish in the tank and I don't want them to be bothered by a powerhead that is too stong for their liking.

Where's the filter? Unless you're doing a planted ecosystem type tank.
I don't think tiger barbs are too fond of strong currents so I'd direct the powerhead outlet across the top of the tank.

Ok, just you didn't mention it in the OP.
