ive got a 29gal and ive just got a questions.. how much flow are you running in your tank.. ive got 2 Maxi 900's pushing 230 gph each..there pointed at each other from opposite sides of the tank.. and it just seems like to much flow.. so i cut them down to 1 at a time.. one during the day.. and the other at night.. my finger leather and my zoo's look a lot better now.. and my fish swim all over the tank.. they were just staying in one corner..

zdanny- the lighting is currently 130w pc by coralife, 10k and actinic and two 3/4 w leds. my new setup will feature aquamedic 250w mh pendant with a bulb yet to be determined (i am leaning towards phoenix 20k or aqualine perhaps, suggestions?)

 

USA- I have two maxi 1200s at opposite ends pointed to meet at the glass in the center about 2/4 of the way to the top. i have a maxi 600 pointed just off center of glass. The trick is to aggitate everything and break the surface tension without disturbing the sand bed too much. The fish can deal with current unless extreme. Fix the current to your liking and then move the corals to the part of the "reef" they would naturally grow in!

 

hope this helps
