I've been running a Voyager 1000 on my 20 gallon. I think it works, but I'm concerned I'm getting enough flow. I purchased a Nero 3 and have it installed on the opposite side of my Voyager. The strength is set at 17% with a constant stream.

I have a torch, hammer, xenia, and GSP, along with some mushrooms. Should I use a constant stream, pulse, or random? Which would be best? Or should I remove the Voyager and go with the Nero only?

Thank you!
 
Do you have a video of the flow you are getting?
 
Personally I would want to use them both, I find that using only one I always get that one way circular flow in the tank, with 2 its easier to aim them at each other and get better random flow patterns.

But I agree a video of what you're seeing will help....
 


Here you go. I need to clean the glass. Tank maintenance day is Friday.
 
Looks fine to me, the polyps are just barely moving, personally I like a bit more flow than that.

I can turn the speed up. I just found that i can schedule my feeding time.
