Wavemaker suggestion

PolarBlue · 02/08/2015, 04:24 PM

I've got a 75 gallon with a dead area on the right. The left has an eheim wet/dry and maxi jet doing good stirring things up. It's not too strong where the fish are getting blown around much. The right side just a Fluval 404 that doesn't seem to create a lot of circulation.

Anyway, what gph wavemaker would you recommend? I don't want something so strong that cardinals and my pygmy angel gets bounced around (they like that side), but powerful enough to get a nice current going and assist in biological filtration with the live rock. I don't wanna get one that's too weak or too strong.

At one time I would say to get a Tunze wave maker. Had mine for a couple of years. However after seeing the new style Maxispect Gen pumps if I had to do it all over again I think that's what I would go with.
