Topic for the week August 7 {Flow}

Good question Billy... I currently do not have decent flow behind the rocks. I have tried to compensate with large caves on the lower level. Doing this has worked okay, but on my next aquascaping, I will not 'stack' the rocks against the back glass so I can have better flow there.

All my rock is in the middle of the tank so I have flow all around. My tank is viewable from 3 sides so there is room for a mag float minimum between the rock and glass except the wall with the overflow. I really think I need more flow though. I need to get out that head loss calculator I got from somebody and see what my net flow is.

just so you guys know, i've been running the MJ mods on 1200s for a while now, and while they are great, and open up the ph's amazingly well, they can't be used on a wave timer.
this has to do with the mj changing directions every time it turns on, which won't affect anything in it's normal configuration, but since the upgraded impellar is directional, it would be turning the wrong way. it uses a bump stop to kick back, and often gets stuck, in my experience. i don't know if this affects the life of the pumps.
