Looking for flow advice for my tank, bothnin terms of equipment, flow patterns, and aquascape. It is a 72” x 24” x 36”, setup as a room divider between two columns, with overflows on both side panels and both front and back viewing panels. Intend to be an sps dominant mixed reef with tangs and...
So I’m having a hard time deciding on which way to increase the flow inside my tank. I’m debating on getting the hygger wavemaker 1600 model or the mightyjet 538 with a spinstream attachment. Just would like some other input on which is better. My tank is the IM 15 gallon
Trying to figure out the best placement and flow pattern for my 40 gallon AT cube. I have 2 Nero 3s and a mighty jet pump. The aquascape is centered in the tank with the left side being higher.
Hi,
I have a 75-gallon tank that has been set up for a year now. I am still learning a lot and thought I would ask all of you if my flow looks good. The video of the corals are ones that you can see swaying. Thank you for any advice.
Power heads:
Aqueon 950 in the bottom back corner 7...
I've had some trouble getting even flow in my Max E 260 and I'm currently fighting a Cyano outbreak so looking for advice.
Currently the bulk of the flow is coming from two Tunze 6095s at the back of the tank pointed at each other. I have them controlled by my GHL profilux to create random...
What’s going on everybody! I’m looking at a couple Wavemakers and not sure which one I should pull the trigger on. I have an aq110 set up as a fuge! That says it can be from 150-500 gph. I will have no sand bed!
As far as pump wave makers go is this over kill?

Tried a few different wetsides today and thought I would share:
BONUS: feel free to critique my aquascape (I will add an island on the front left)
Not a scientific test but speps:
Mp10, 40% Flow, 32g Fiji EXT (only filled below the overflow for now) - about 23" left to right.
Sorry for the...
Can I bury the trunk of my Kenya tree deep in the sand? It keeps shrinking in the flow and the other place that I can move it to just has a sand bed. I had it in the sand before but it fell over. I need to really bury it.
Hello! I am new to the hobby and am in the process of planning out my first reef tank. The tank that I have selected is 48" long and 24" wide and 20" tall with two flexible return pump discharge points in the middle back of the tank. I am very interested in the Vortech MP40 powerheads but I...

Tell Us About Your Aquarium.
what brand is it - is it a custom build or a off-the-shelf aquarium?
Is it an all-in-one or does it have a sump, or maybe a canister filter?
How many gallons is it, and what are the dimensions?
Is it a mixed reef, fish only SPS dominant? Or, maybe a freshwater build?
I have a pair of Icecap 2k Gyres for sale. They both come with the controllers but these are also Hydros wave engine compatible. Both pumps work great and have just been cleaned up. Asking $175 for the pair shipped to the lower 48. I only accept PayPal.
Last night I made an adjustment to my flow as it was a little overwhelming for many or my coral.
When I checked the tank this morning, I noticed everyone was happier, but my Hammer and Frogspawn look different - as you can see in the pic, they both are loose. They used to have their tentacles...
Hi, I have these two power heads, they are both hyggers but the tiny one on the left was rated 1500 ghp and the one on the right has no flow control, but tis rated 500 gph, Now I know thats alot of flow for the left one, I turned it all the way down on its lowest setting and I saw it was still a...
I recently set up a pro clear 150. Lfs sold me pretty hard on a single redsea wavemaker 25. Put it in, I don’t believe it’s adequate flow so I planned on getting a second one for a crisp $320.
THEN BRS post the video yesterday about the maxspect gyre cloud edition and it’s made me rethink...
So I have an aqueon 29 tank with a fluval 307 canister filter along with 2 hygger mini DC wave makers at 1600gph each. My rockwork is pretty much in the center of the tank. One wave maker is on the right side wall in the lower back corner which is pushing water behind the rockwork to the...
I have had a Cyanobacteria outbreak and have seemingly good water parameters, granted my tank isn’t the most stable because it is around 3 1/2 months old and fluctuates, I have siphoned most of it and a water change, and will get chemi clean if it persists for a while, but I was wondering if my...
Hello guys,
I need to switch to a larger tank from my nano as it’s getting overgrown and I am going to go with Red Sea reefer 250 g2,
now since I don’t have that much money for equipment right now I can’t buy MP40s or an expensive return so my idea was to go with:

Whatsup guys,
I have an aqueon 29gal standard reef, been up for 6-8weeks. I have mixed reef and also two clown fish with a couple of snails and hermits. My question lies with flow. I have a fluval 370 canister with the flow fully open and also 2 hygger mini DC wave makers(1600gph max for...
Set up my sump and my brand new Jebao DCP 18000 controller won’t let me adjust the flow. It worked fine last night, adjusted speed up and down, no problem. It is not locked. I can press for 3 seconds and it flashes to indicate it is locked or unlocked like it should, but will not allow me to...

Hey all,
I’ve got a question regarding flow for my tank, a Waterbox 20. I have my nero mounted on the left side about two thirds up, but I’ve noticed it kinda gets a dead spot underneath itself with minimal flow, which cyano tends to love:/
My options look at mounting another powerhead in the...
