Hey everyone!

I have a Fluval Evo XII Saltwater Aquarium Kit, 13.5 Gal. And had the hygger Aquarium Wave Maker 1321 GPH 12W which I think was to strong for the tank even on all the lowest settings. Does anyone know what a good wavemaker for this size tank would be?

That would be strong. A nano powerhead would be better:
Sicce nano-stream
Koralia nano

Jebao ELW-5m or ELW-3m would be the ones to look at. As far as I could find, the ELW-3m is the smallest (lowest flow) FULLY controllable wavemaker there is. I use several of them myself.
