I'm looking to get a clam for my BC29. I have an mp10 so i can adjust how much flow i want, but i also plan on keeping a bunch of sps so the flow in the tank might be a little on the high side. So my question is how much flow can a clam safely handle. BTW i don't want to put it on the sand bed it will be on the rock work.
Thanks

Full Version: How much flow can a clam handle?
you will be fine, they can enjoy the same as SPS. A MP10 is not direct flow but very disbursed.
I have a MP20 on my 20L on 100% and my little maxima is doing great on the sandbed right in the middle of tank.

are the fish pressed up against front glass???
that's alot of flow in a 20L so i guess if i get a clam it will do fine cause i really don't excessive flow in my tank
I like my fish to look like they are in a blender..just spinning this way and that.

LOL, no
My clown and coral beauty do fine with it. I also have the output from a AquaC Remora(mj1200) in addition.
I have an mp10 on my 24g sps dominated, and my maxima loves the flow. he moves himself (on the sand) to be more in the flow.
