Water movement

[trevormass7]

I'm not necessarily new to saltwater but had a new hobbyist question. I have a job filter and an air pump in my 10g nano. Wondering if this is ok? The air pump puts of medium sized bubbles so it makes waves just wondering if that's enough

Not for coral, no.

Only if you doing fish

You don't need air pump but you do need some kind of powerhead to create some movement.

It's only fish and a emerald crab, I have cheap leds so I would try coral in that tank till I could do a lot of upgrades

My powerhead just broke(Will be replacing once I get paid). The air pump is creating lots of surface movement tho. Just using it till my new one comes in

Yes air pump for now is fine. I have a back up battery airpump to use when there is power outage.
