Help with flow. I’m running a 660 gph marine wave maker with a cheap 550 gph power head at a constant flow. I’m eventually going to be putting sps in the tank but right now my GSP isn’t even waving around. So do I need more flow or should I change the postions of my power heads? Also the tank seems cloudy with micro bubbles. I did recently set the tank up like 2 weeks ago but used everything out of my old tank. Anyway to clear the water up it just seems cloudy and tons of micro bubbles. I can send video if need be. Also I am vodka dosing and have been for a month and a half I’m wondering if that’s why it’s cloudy and micro bubbles or if it’s just cause it’s new?

Giving that you moved everything over recently, I would expect a small cycle and the associated cloudiness of a bacterial bloom. Give it time to settle down on its own. It will clear soon enough
 
What's your N03 at to be carbon dosing?
So I was dosing in my old tank so I thought I should keep dosing in the new tank since all of the stuff came from the old tank. My No3 is 160ppm a week ago I had them at 40ppm and recently this week it spiked again to 160ppm. Idk if I’m feeding to much or not but on the other side the reason I am feeding heavy is because I have a coral beauty and I don’t want him to pick on any of my corals. I feed once daily. I switch every other day with rods food and spectrum.
