I need a video of the correct flow on a frogspawn/duncans plz

[stewy14]

I DONT KNOW HOW TO GIVE FLOW TO MY FROGGGYYYYYYYY
he is always fully open, inflated and stuff, when I give him flow he doesn't close, he just shortens in size
I also need one for Duncans too plz

he doesn't close, he just shortens in size

that’s a sign of increased flow with euphillias…. they actually are more “puffy” in low flow,,

There is a vid by Tidal gardens? the owners name escapes me
Anyway, IMO your original flow is/was probably the best …
if/when they become LESS inflated, lower the flow…
IME either way is fine, so long as they aren’t blasted and tearing their flesh against that sharp skeleton …

Mine get super wide slower flow

I need more flow for my acros tho
I try and do that, but dont have a wavemaker that does that...
and my back wall always empties if I use original flow, I need to use lower flow and thats not sufficient for my acros
and I have an rfg

Honestly you are housing two types of coral that IME are worlds apart in housing requirements….how big is your tank and what are you using for flow?

It’s gonna be tricky making both happy in less than 4ft of tank and few wavemakers…

In my mixed reef tank I’m using 5 gyres to keep every corner of the tank happy ….consider small cheap wavemakers to customize more direct flow for your acros… Sicce makes a small form factor wavemakers for under $60

if the frogspawn is moveable then find a dead spot somewhere before you up the flow

what kind of budget you working with?
What kind of fault tolerance?

…I mean you could shell out for a MP10 but personally I’d just do something from Amazon for under $100 then just replace it when the eventual and inevitable failure happens

ITS 300 $$$$$
I guess, if I could sell my current wave maker for the same price, clean it out and everything, then around idk, 70?
I use this Amazon product

yeah something like that was what I was thinking….small form factor, cheap, controllable…
I’d get as many as practical to get the job done….there is a chance you might figure some type of workaround for both corals
