New hammer - judge the flow.

[kilnakorr]

I added my first hammer coral last night, and it's been opening slowly.
My biggest issue with corals in general is judging flow.
I've turned the flow down, to be on the safe side and personally I find the current flow pretty low:


What do you guys/girls/LGBTQIA say?

Looks beautiful, don’t change the flow for one coral though! If you plan on adding more lps, don’t be afraid to turn the flow up a little bit, or move and adjust your flow!

Looks perfect! you will have better judgement once it opens more!

Looks good as it's acclimating to your tank. You'll probably "up" the flow after it settles in.

keep an eye on it if doesn't stop clinching in a week somethings up that's a wall if one part's not happy none of it will survive

I probably will. Seems a bit low throughout the tank.

New tank and new to saltwater so I keep an eye on everything :)
Hopefully it'll open up more each day.

Agree, looks fine. Low if anything.

Might also be too low for the rest of the tank...

Flow is more than enough, they b like low flow areas
