Enough Flow? Still debating if this is working right
I am still debating if my 120g fowlr has enough flow? I moved the PH's. I know people with Bare bottom suggest flow hitting the front glass to bounce back into the LR and get the detritus (sp) up into the filter/sump. I know water changes do the same but I just want to make sure I have correct flow. This has been up for a couple of weeks and no algae lol I added a coral rock my neightbor gave me. I will do a water change in 2 weeks I just want to make sure I have it set up the most efficient way to get the crap into the filter. I moved 2 rocks and saw crap floating so I might need to add another PH to clean off the rocks? What do you think? Thanks

Without telling me what kind of flow you have, i couldn't tell you if you have enough. I have 5 koralia 4's in my tank, and my return pump. I think its enough, but it could always be more. Even my softies like it.

I would say no. I'm not an expert, but that's just not enough in my opinion. But if it works for you then it's right.
