After research and study and reading countless threads on just about everything, I pulled the trigger on setting up my 30 gal. I was doing everything right, taking it slow. Not skipping or short cutting. Then came time for fish. My little clown is doing great on its 3rd day. But the mistake I...

I just bought a 30 gallon breeder (30Lx18wx12h) and was planning on using a Koralia 1. Will this be enough? I Just don't want any dead or weak spots mainly to keep algea in check but for other obvious reason too. But on the other hand I don't want to blow everything around or have a sand storm...
