: Would a Tetratec power filter 150 with the heating capsule and a ugf with Hagen powerhead 301 be good for a 20 gallon hex with one discus living in it.Would a reverse flow UGF be better?Will the water be to turbulent.I need help!!

Eve, undergravel filters should definately not be used for the discus tank. The reverse flow is a better idea, but still unnecessary, also sounds like a little too much water movement. If it is only 1 discus in the 20 gal. your tetratec deal will be fine by itself. Hth
