Even for some as new to this hobby/lifestyle as I am I regonize the importence of flow I will be running the SCWD wave maker on a mag 12 pump wiht a in-line ballvalve to adjust flow. I will also like to get a tunze just in-case seeing as how I want to keep a mix of SPS/LPS in my 100 gal. I also use loc line in my plumping and I believe that it really helps with being able to direct the flow. I will also have a SB so getting it just right is important so as not to release excess nutrients into the tank. But in saying all this the inhabitants of our tanks do experince high and low "flow" in their natural environment (storms, hurricanes, etc.) and all we have to do is find the perfect balance.
