Looking for opinions on current in my tank.
Should the powerheads all be running at night as they do in the day? Should the current be toned down a bit? Or leave it full blast all the time? Right now, I have 2 maxi 1200's. They were on a wave strip, but I have been having problems with it. Right now one maxi is on all the time, and one is on a timer when the lights are on, 12hrs a day. Thanks All!

I would say the the ocean doesn't slow down at night so why should the water movement in your tank?
I don't use the day/night setting on my RedSea Wavemaker Pro. Full bore 24/7! FWIW, Nathan |

I keep the current in my tanks the same 24/7. The only time it changes is when one of the powerheads falls off the glass.
