Hello everyone pretty new here been searching a lot and watching videos all over. I recently got some vca 1/4inch rfg nozzles for my tank. Fluval evo 13.5. Looking to upgrade my stock pump. Any pump recommendations? I did try the sicce 1.0 but it was constantly vibrating in the chamber making it loud. So I swapped back to the stock pump. Would the stock pump be ok with the rfg? Not sure if I should just add a wave maker or upgrade the pump and avoid the wave maker if possible. I like the tank to look less crowded.
