Link to video of tank
I only have zoas, mushrooms and a toadstool in tank. Innovative marine 15cube
Upgraded return pump to Sicce Syncra 1.5(357GPH). I also have a Hygger mini wavemaker but possibly adds too much flow so unplugged that so flow is now only from the return pump. Please let me know your thoughts
Also let me know your thoughts on the aquascape. Also any advice or changes I should make with coral placements
 
Hygger mini adds up to 1600gph at max speed. Levels available are 40,60,80, and 100% power. With 357gph produced by my return pump, is the wavemaker necessary?
 
Could be, but not for softies and mushrooms too much. Do the math 357/15 is what 23x turnover. Hopefully it's adjustable so you can reduce it.

I have a ****** fluval hob on the wife's 15 and i put a nero3 in there just to help it out. But again even though the filter rated for upto 30g, it acts as a gyre with laminar flow, so a nero 3 on the back causes a bit more randomness... and I have it turned down to 25-45% max randomness. And 10% at night.

Do you need it??? For your setup prolly not...
