If I can get my bigger pump to not blow bubbles, I'll drop those power heads almost to the bottom and point them into the rocks and use the return flow from the sump to provide most of the circulation at the top.
To many dead spots right now.

I thought I had a couple more hermits than I have now. But the only major casualty was the sump, it cracked. And for some reason, my convict ciclid died a few days after the move. It was crazy tho, I had 4 pickup trucks filled with fish stuff. 3rd floor apartment. I moved the last weekend in September. That weekend sucked.
But the puffer, sailfin and lunar wrasse made it, (they are pretty big) And they survived in a 45 gallon tank for 2 weeks and didn't kill eachother.

Do you like the Lunar Wrasse? I herd they are not the best fish, but would like to hear from someone who has one.

He is a beautiful, active, interesting fish. It is a realitively large tank. And he pretty much keeps to himself. Minus eating all the inverts. And Killing my lawnmower. When I first put the sailfin in the tank, I saw a wrasse sized bite on the Sailfin and some frayed fins, but since then the sailfin has whooped his butt a couple times and he is smart enough to stay away. And other than that, he is pretty aggressive during feeding time. And gets nipped at by the puffer. Because he is eating the food hanging out the puffer's mouth. There is another person on here who had a lunar wrasse in a several thousand gallon tank, who liked to eat the eyes out of yellow tangs. I believe it.
I kind of think that this isn't a fish for a small tank and by small I mean under 200 gallons. Not because he needs the space but because he is just mean. And this isn't a fish for the mellow fish. I think the MAD idealogy. Mutually Assured Destruction works with this fish. Just pair it with something just as mean as him and you'll be fine. You know make it your death row tank, clown, queen trigger and a few damsels. To make a long story short, they are really mean. Get some other more mellow fish.
