I need help with the water circulation. I'm using a hsbao w40 pump, max 13,000l/h, but I'm using it at minimum power. Even so, I'm noticing a lot of water and sand movement in the opposite direction to the pump, so much so that the sand is being directed only to one side.

I'll be putting rocks in a few days, I don't know if that will help. But until then, is there anything I can do to improve the situation? Change the position of the bombs in some way? thanks.

Part of the reason is because your sand is so fine! But you can change the position I’d recommend moving them up on the glass until the sand stops blowing. Once you get rock in the tank too it will create a force against the flow.
