Flow is a hard concept, especially in a nano tank.
I like using a random flow generator on my return.
I also like using a wavemaker on the same wall but lower down. This way there is turbulence and a very random flow through the tank. I use Jebao OW-10 Wavemaker and it’s pretty powerful and has many different functions. It’s not gonna break the bank either.
I can move the wave maker here. Which direction should I point it after this? Towards my sps maybe as I feel under the return theres such low flowFlow is a hard concept, especially in a nano tank.

Well currently I feel under the return is amost no flow I would love to get the flow right but Im not positive on what and where to place itI think you want to figure out your goal. What is it that your current set up doesn't accomplish in terms of flow?
Here is a pic of mine. The flow From return and wavemaker meet on opposite wall, bounce off, and create turbulent flow throughout the tank.Well currently I feel under the return is amost no flow I would love to get the flow right but Im not positive on what and where to place it

I saw your reply on my email and I just had Epiphany of how this makes sense. I see my flow now as arrows going clockwise but this flow just turns those arrows on its side and amplifies it. I know I’m a little slow on it but I learned something and thats my favorite part of the hobbyHere is a pic of mine.

Its almost fully down right now but I have one right now towards the top so there is surface agitationYou could try and angle the return nozzle downward. YOu could also try and angle the wavemaker at an angle where it sweeps around the rock off of the glass
