Hey all, was looking for tips/suggestions for best flow in my new aquatop 40g cube tank. Right now I have the standard return pump on the back right moving across the middle of the tank and have my other blower on the opposite left side blowing sort of into it to create a decent flow for the whole tank. I'm looking for suggestions on what's worked for others. Any help is appreciated! Thank you!

You will know better when you get corals, if they don't look happy, you'll need to change things, it doesn't matter if you think your flow is good, it's down to what they think.

You can also tell if you see a lot of detritus settling in one area.
