So i finally got my 2nd loop pump and am trying to figure out the best settings now that both my wave pumps are controllable.

30 gal breeder
Pump location and flow direction

Any tips would be appreciated....
 
I have different power heads myself , but what’s your decision making behind making the flow like that ? Angling the power head like that will cause some turbulent flow right at the center of the tank.

I am using 2 power heads and have a flow pattern around my tank. I can set different flow patterns to cause a chaotic flow but that’s to export nutrient .

Well, was going for some high flow turbulent across the top and middle with some calmer down and off to the sides. Looking for a mixed reef fairly heavy with sps. Also got a couple BTA coming in a few days. But going to pick up a 90 gal bowfront tomorrow, so this tank will probably become a quarantine tank as the 90 will now be my main reef.
