    Adding Oxygen???

    Thanks, My powerhead is located closer to the bottom of the tank and is pointed upward at an approx. 45 degree angle. Should this be within a couple inches of the top and directed downward? Karma to both of you, Thanks for the assistance with my adventure!

    Adding Oxygen???

    I currently run two 10 inch stone bubblers in the rear of my tank to add oxygen to the saltwater. Is this adequate or unneccesary and will to oxygen rich of an environment create algae accumulation? If anyone have an answer to this I would appreciate feedback. Thank You!
