Hi everyone! I am in desperate need of help getting the right flow in my tank. It's a 150 gallon tall (2ft x 4ft x 30in) mixed reef. When I set it up nearly a year ago, I had no idea what I was doing in this department. I got two Hydor Koralia 1500GPH pumps and called it a day. Several times I've had to move them over the months because they were blasting too much flow on corals on the opposite end of the tank and I was never happy nor were the corals. My LFS and some others told me to get a wavemaker.
A couple of days ago, I did just that after a long time of being told this. I ended up getting the Jebao CP-120, since its designed for 120cm/4ft tanks. I installed it and it seems to blast way too much flow throughout the tank, even on the lowest setting. The only exception being W1 mode creating oscillation in the entire tank at the lowest speed. Any kind of flow I add seems to blast my flower pots at the bottom and they've been closed up all day.
I cant seem to figure this out and I don't know what to do or get. Can anyone give me some advice?
