I currently have a 15G nano cube do you guys think a small wavemaker will be needed in this? Or is this not really needed as it is small as is? I went to put one in and it just takes up a lot of space. Of course, if it is needed I can for sure put one in (I have extra small wavemakers for 15G.) Ill post a pic of it in the comments so you guys can see what I'm working with.
 
This is the nano

I would say yes personally as I have one in my 15 gallon and ran one in my 9 gallon before that.

EDIT: I should specify that it is not strictly NEEDED, but I would recommend as I find most stock AIO pumps (and even some recommended upgraded pumps) to be lacking. Using an "over powered" return pump with a random flow generator might be a viable alternative. . .
 
I think it also depends on what else you planning on keeping in it and flow requirements on tank inhabitants.
 
current stocking:
Fish:
(2) Tomato Clowns
Coral:
Kenya tree
Splatter Hammer
Duncan
Pulsing Xenia
Mushrooms

And there is also one Anemone (I Want to add one more)

I Dont plan on adding anymore corals as for one i need to thin out the mushrooms anyways
 
I have a sicce nano power head in my jbj 10g and the sicce upgraded return pump(powered down a bit). The power head is a lot of flow but not TOO much. Definitely at the high end but once i get sps im sure they’ll love it.
 
I have 2 sicce voyager nano's in my 15. The flow is wide and not strong so they work perfect for small tanks.
