I need help, I am trying to figure out the flow in my tank. It's a 45Gal JBJ. I currently have two Powerheads. One is the Platinum Slim Wave 1600 and the other Hygger HG112-8W, approximately 1,500 GPH. The Hygger is fairly new to the system and seems to have a much more direct flow than the Platinum. Anyway, I currently having them operating opposite each other to try and create a more chaotic flow but I'm concerned its all too much. The torch flow looks good I think...but the Hammer/Octo garden looks like it might be getting beat up too much. The mid and lower water column looks is fairly turbulent but the mushroom seems to be doing ok. Does anyone have any advice? Is the flow ok and I'm just being overly cautious? I'm open to moving the powerheads if necessary. Thanks.
