I moved it on the rock Friday but still nothing how would I know where more flow is? Have a jbj 28 nano everything is stock so all we have is the 2 pump heads at the top that alternate every 20 secs

gsp likes a lot of water flow. If there is no way to get it up high then you may need to invest in a power head so that you can direct the water flow down where you need it.
