sweeping powerhead

What is out there that I can mount to a tunze to have it sweep back and forth?

I dont think anything there are the powersweep powerheads but they are garbage and will quit.

The only thing i can think of is a sea swirl

I've had 'ok' luck with the powersweep. 9 months of use and it still works. In that time I've replaced 2 hydors in that time. Snails bind them up and deteriate the gears.
