Flow seems to be one of the items especially important for keeping SPS. Being relatively new and inexperienced one of the things I struggle with, and find the hardest to determine in this hobby is whether or not I have the proper flow in my tank. Many of the parameters in reef keeping are quantifiable and measurable, but flow always seems to be a vague figure or description to me. High, medium, low, direct, indirect, random, variable...what exactly do those all look like in person. I know powerheads all have flow ratings and most people say 50X is the number to go for, but with all of the different tank dimensions, aquascapes, powerhead placement, and stocking, even that number becomes somewhat unclear if it's the magic number. With all that being said I was wondering if maybe I could get some feedback on what some of you experts think about the flow in the attached video, at least for this one piece of SPS? If there is any interest I would love to see some more videos of what other people have for flow and how it is working out for them!
