Ugh so many options! Got a model number?
Unfortunately no. I purchased mine over 5 years ago. Buy them as a pair and go off recommended tank size. Best to have 2 to regulate the dead spots and flow.

Thanks - going to start with ONE of these Tunze Turbelle NanoStream Pump 6015 https://a.co/d/ft3iFyv

You think I should add it to the opposite end of the tank from the corals to direct flow to them or closer and more direct?

You should have 2 on either end. 1/3 of the way down and pointed slightly upward. Your goals are surface agitation, no sand blowing around and no dead spots.

Edit: I guess with a nano, one may be enough. I'm not sure on your tank size

2 will be better. Mine aren't turned all the way up. With 2, you can create random flow and turbulence in the tank. You don't want to directly blast most coral. Also, surface agitation and having ALL areas with at least some flow is necessary.

Ok I sucked it up and got two - they will arrive today! Hoping this guy can hold on till then?? He really doesn’t like the lack of current flow!
