It will be easier to tell once the torch is fully open. Until then the flow won't be the issue.

Look for moderate random flow.

Here’s a video from Top Shelf Aquatics showing the flow they use. My flow is similar and the torches seem happy.

Yeah my corals seem super happy so I’m good . Algae doesn’t bother me and it comes and goes. Just last month it was clear. Not going to stress myself out everytime I see algae it’s fine :)

That’s how I feel about that too! Not everyone can have a perfect pristine tank!!! I have bubble algae, and always will. That doesn’t mean I can’t have beautiful corals that thrive!!!

EXACTLY. Like i work a job and this is my hobby to take a load off. Some green hair algae isn’t going to make me go crazy . This month it’s here next month it’ll be gone lol. I’m glad I’m not the only one
