I've got a spare Eheim powerhead which came with my Trigon 190. It's a 600 lph one and never used since I took the supplied filter out. Is it useful for anything else? The input/output don't look standard to me but is there an innovative use for it that might be beneficial to the tank or my smaller tank?
 
I second the idea to stick the powerhead atop a Hydrosponge - I did it with a Maxijet for a friend and it rocks his world (well, his fish's world!). Specially if you get one of the larger sponges you have a bio-beast.

Another idea is to get another power-head and stick them at opposite ends of the tank - run them on a timer for a tidal effect.

It also depends on what fish you have - some of them love the flow and others are pretty contemptuous - I've got an angel that will attack air-stones!
