Hello friends,
My 50 gallon reef has 3 powerheads connected to my wave maker.
1 Powerhead - back/left corner high
2 powerhead - back/right corner high
3 Powerhead - front/right corner high
I also have an Aquaclear 110 moving water as well as a protein skimmer to some degree. The placement of my life-rock goes about 3/4 of the way up the tank positioned in almost a horseshoe pattern from left/front to the back then to the right/front.
Most of my SPS corals are in the front of the tank. With that said, with the flow of my powerheads, is that enough water movement for the corals?
The powerheads and not very fast, just enough to make the water flow around the tank.
Should they be positioned high as I have them now or should I move one to say the lower part of the tank to move water on the sandy bottom?
Thank you,
ReefJeff
