I bought this pulsing xenia about a week ago. That time I placed it in a suitable spot for it. That spot had little to no flow and the xenia was not moving a lot because my powerhead was too dirty and not working. Now after I cleaned it, the xenia looks like it is being blasted by a jet engine. Is this too much flow or am I just freaking out ?
 
The coral is pulling to one side, corals like to sway back and forth. Its very hard to have good random flow patterns with only one source of flow, its much easier with 2 sources of flow to bounce off each other and create random flow.
