I just upgraded my wave pumps (Current Eflux 660 to 1050) and they are MUCH more powerful. In fact, I have them on 2/10 when I had the others on 10/10. The 660s just didn't have any distance for some reason.

Anyway, my LPS are moving pretty good but still inflated. My green birdsnest has all the polyps open but they are moving around . It isn't direct flow.

If I had too much flow, I would assume that the polyps would close up completely. Am I correct in thinking this? I mean, the ocean is much more powerful than what I am doing.

 
Yea that's not to much at all.

And yeah for the most part flowy lps wont extend as much in to powerful of flow.

Birdsnest can handle a stupid amount of flow
