Hi all I’ve recently purchased a new pump for my Fluval evo 52l it’s a tmc reef compact 500 It has adjustable speeds from 10% to 100% with a overall flow rate of 500L/H I’m pretty new to the hobby and I’m unsure of the correct speed is acceptable for my tank with just 2 clownfish and 3 hermits if anyone could point me in the right direction would be much appreciated thanks.

I would set it at 30% . See how it goes. Clowns dont need much flow. Its to tank that needs some water movement to prevent stuff from accumulating on rock and sand.
