I have never been big on nano skimmers...Gary, how do you like the Aqua C?

Wav, welcome!
I like flow and the more you read about what can happen to a tank without enough flow, that extra powerhead seems like a good idea. It looks like you have an HK nano. I have one, doesn't have much umph behind it...not much for adjusting, but it there was a way to put it behind the rockwork, or at least low to the side pointing along the back, it might help keep some waste from accumulating back there. I have HK1s pointing toward the surface and slightly pointed toward the skimmer. Helps with gas exchange and gives me some sense that some uneaten food and fish poo is going to the skimmer versus sitting on the sanbed.

So, what livestock would you like to see in there?
