Aquarium Pumps & Powerheads
A good fish tank pump is vital to the care and upkeep of your aquarium. Powerhead pumps play an important role in circulating water to maintain the water quality for the health and well-being of the fish, coral and other aquatic invertebrates in your aquarium. We have a wide assortment of inline aquarium water pumps and powerhead pumps to choose from, so you're going to want to make sure to get the right kind for your aquarium. You'll need to take the size and type of tank into consideration as well as the different water movement and circulation preferences of the ecosystem in your aquarium.
Marineland Maxi-Jet Water & Circulation Pump gives you three pumps in one - it can be used as a powerhead, utility pump or circulation pump in a variety of freshwater and marine tanks. The three pump options make it ideal for many uses, including under-gravel filters, wave-maker timers, small fountains, calcium reactors and skimmers. Plus, it's easy to attach to your tank with the secure suction cup mount. The Hydor Koralia Nano Aquarium Circulation Pump can be used with marine, freshwater or tropical aquariums. This energy-efficient compact pump recreates natural water motion and has a ball joint that lets you adjust the flow direction. It also has a built-in fish net and anti-vibration system that ensures your fish won't be disturbed. You can control up to two pumps with the Hydor Smart Wave Aquarium Pump Controller, which helps recreate natural wave patterns and currents in your aquarium. The synchronous setting mimics the wave motion found in barrier reefs, while the alternate setting is great for simulating tides.
Keep your tank in the best of care with the perfect aquarium water pump and powerhead. Whether you have a large or small tank, marine or freshwater aquarium, shop the best aquarium water pumps and powerheads here on Chewy today.

Frequently Asked Questions about Aquarium Pumps & Powerheads
What is the difference between an aquarium pump and a powerhead?
The difference between an aquarium pump and a powerhead is that an aquarium pump is a water circulator that moves water through a series of tubes, while a powerhead uses a propeller to create a more powerful flow of water. They perform largely the same function, which is circulating water in your tank, but the powerhead is able to create more water turbulence and may be more effective for larger tanks.
How long do aquarium pumps last?
Some aquarium pumps will only last for a year or two before they fail, while others may last for 4 to 5 years or even more. Proper cleaning and care will help extend the life of your pump, and you may be able to get replacement parts for your pump if they wear out. Look for quality brands with good warranties and good reviews if you want to make sure to buy an aquarium pump that lasts.
How do I install an aquarium pump?
Install an aquarium pump according to the product's assembly and installation instructions. Most water pumps can be easily installed using a suction cup that sticks to the inside of your glass tank. Your pump's manual or quick start guide should have recommendations on where to place your aquarium pump for best performance, but you may need to experiment in order to achieve the best water flow for your tank.
How do I choose the right aquarium pump for my fish tank?
Choose the right aquarium pump for your fish tank by first figuring out how much water pumping capacity you will need. A general rule of thumb is to multiply your tank's capacity by 5 or 6 to get the minimum flow rate in gallons per hour (GPH). Pick a pump that is made for either freshwater or saltwater (or both) depending on the type of tank you have. Be sure to also choose an aquarium pump that is appropriate for your type of fish.
