Hi guys, I'm new around here but have been on-and-off in the hobby for over 10 years. I recently set up and cycled a 5g pico reef. I used the Fluval Evo V and upgraded the lights to AI Prime 16HD, the intank media basket running chemipure elite, as well as the pump from the stock 80gph to the Cobalt mj606 at 160gph. I've been messing with the settings and ultimately turned it all the way down because I was worried my 1" baby clown was stressed.
The box says that the Cobalt runs at 80gph on the lowest setting but I don't believe this. It still looks like at least 130goh, especially compared to the stock 80gph fluval pump, which is anemic.
I made a video of LPS in the tank and I was hoping some people could review it and tell me if they thought the flow was still too high, too low, or just right. Thank you ahead.
