I have 2 AI Nero 5's mounted near the bottom of my 40b. It was drilled as a peninsula tank, but it's not set up that way due to my current living situation. The display has about 30-35 gallons of actual water volume. I run them at the random setting on anti-sync between 60-85% which gives me a turnover rate of 125x-145x. Due to the configuration, the flow at the top is slightly slower, but I think it's still pretty rippin'. Below is a video of the tank after feeding so you can see how the particles move. The thing I'm most worried about is flow going too much in one direction at the top, but as I look at the polyps they do whip back and forth as the rock breaks up the flow. What do you think of the setup for SPS? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. Forgive me for the fan noise. It's hot and I didn't want to turn it off lol.
