Hello,


I have a Waterbox 20 with a Jebao MLW-5 set to the minimum power on W2 mode. I recently added two clownfish, and I turned off the flow for about a week to help them adjust. One of the clowns, the smaller one, spends a lot of time swimming against the current. I’m not sure if he’s just playing or if the flow is too strong for him.


I’m now planning to restart the flow and recorded some videos of it. Do you think the flow might be too strong for my clownfish or corals? Also, should I turn it off at night?
