Hi Everyone,
i recently upgraded my powerheads and bought 2 WP40s for my 120 (48 inch long). Ever since i switched powerheads i am getting alot of buildup on the bottom of my tank and hair algae is starting to build up on the my crushed coral. i am trying to figure out what settings people are using on their wp40s.

i have both set on ELSE mode, but i see a lot of dead spots. i have both powerheads about 6-7 inches down from the top of the tank, on opposite sides of the tank facing each other. i would think that 2 WP40s would be plenty of flow, but i am just not seeing it.

i am considering going back to my old hydors.
 
Mine is set on H with the flow knob on lowest.
Try changing the angles of the pump itself one aiming higher and one aiming lower to get better flow
