So I have two large sinlarias in a 120. In the middle switching tanks and have removed one hob filter and the return pump from the sump. So I have eels and became concerned that the air stones and 500 gph hob were not getting enough oxygen down to the bottom. So I put in a powerhead. I do not have it flowing directly on to the sinularia but it has affected the flow to a degree that the sinularia closed fairly tightly. I shut off the powerhead. I know people put the flow right on sinularia. But I don't want to risk it. Mine is not used to it. What kind of flow does your sinularia like?
 
My sinularia loves flow, can’t get enough of it. I’m sure yours will get used to it, they are pretty tough corals.
