I found there was so little movement in my fuge that the Caulerpa prolifera was growing algae on it's fronds. With two small powerheads at either end the fronds sway to and fro and don't grow as much gunk on them. I've still only got about 250gph through the 55g fuge but with movement now it's doing much better. Just wondering what everyone else did.
