Hey all,
So this is a short video of my tank. I feel as if I never really got flow dialed in correctly, I feel like some corals are not getting enough, and others are getting too much. Right now I have both power heads facing one another on the side walls at about 45% each.

How would you go about positioning these power heads differently to ensure adequate flow?

Thank you any comments, advice, etc appreciated

I think in terms of speed you've got the flow dialed in great. The only (minor) suggestion I have is to try aiming the wavemakers up a bit more towards the surface. You could also try angling one slightly towards the back and the other slightly towards the front to get a circular pattern going.

Thank you for the response I will give it a shot
