Hi! I have been running one nano and one pico tank for almost 3 months now. I made a huge mistake during the cycle of my 13gal nano tank which forced me to move my pair of clowns to a 6galon pico(because it is easier to make water changes). I currently have two powerheads but i think they are both too powerfull for my tanks.currently i only have soft corals ( zoas kenya tree and mushroom) but in the future i may consider buying some hard corals.
Currently:
60 L tank -> 2000LH wavemaker
25L tank -> 1000LH wavemaker

Please let me know if the powerheads are too strong.
I really consider changing my 2000LH powerhead, so please recommend any wavemakers which are within my 50£ (~$60) budget
Thanks

I don’t really know but that sounds pretty powerful for such small tanks. Maybe someone else will know more than I do.

You should check out Hydor Koralia Nano powerheads. $30-$40 and provide the correct amount of flow for a nano tank your size.
