Reefing newb
I have a 120 reef ready system , and the flow was incredibly low. I was pushing 1400GPH with the magdrive I believe that was pushing 2 overflows. The powerheads I had were old, and they would often fall of of the back of the tank. I saw 2 nice Aqueon propeller type flow pumps, 1200 series and put them in the tank. Awesome water movement , but I am afraid it may be too much. My reef fish don't seem to mind, however I am not sure if corals need that fast movement or if it needs to be toned down. Seems like some of the corals love it and some don't, but I just started it. I had major dead spots that now have good flow. Is it too much or do I want that flow? All the brown debris that would accumulate on the bottom in the dead areas immediately have been cycled through the system. is adding this amount of flow a good choice for my reef?
