Hi. I am still relatively new to saltwater so apologies if I sound stupid. I have a Kent marine biocube and I have notice that the Powerhead that came with it seems incredibly weak. I dropped some pellet food about 2 inches Infront of it and it just sank straight past it, didn't get blown forward at all. Ive tried cleaning it to make sure it's not that.
I noticed that I had a few algae build ups in some areas and that is where the food tended to be landing I think massive dead spots in flow.
I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion of a new Powerhead or powerheads that would work well in this tank. It has a few lps and soft corals in aswell as a pair of clown fish. Was looking at a maxspect gyre or and mp10 but wasn't sure if these would be too powerful. Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated
Thanks
