It’s on alternating flow with left and right Jebao wavemaker. First left wavemaker fires and then after some time the right wavemaker. I am giving it on speed 2 on Jebao slw 30 and heard a video of tidal gardens that torch need good flow comparable to acropora to avoid bacterial issues like brown jelly disease.

I think that may be a little overkill. Flow enough for a gentle sway and fully extended tentacles. But blowing all over, Im a little surprised its tentacles are extended. Looks like trumps hair on a wind storm.

It’s been in the tank for 2 weeks. 1 week on the sand 1 week here in its current position. Fleshband and everything else is normal.

If you think that’s good enough flow, I wouldn’t stop you. I’ve seen some run high flow and like myself preferring moderate rocking back and forth. Just monitor the fleshband. You’ll know it’s unhappy when it’s receding and make adjustments accordingly.
