Well my sump is FINALLY hooked up! :cheer: :cheer: But it seems the current is too strong???? Maybe he likes it? But he stays in the one spot and it looks like hes going to get blown away, he really wont move to another spot either. :notsure: I took out one of the maxijets but it still look like theres alot of flow. I have one maxi-jet 1200 and the mag-drive 7 that creates the flow. Thanks

Is this in a 125? If so then one powerhead isn't nearly too much. My lion used to like sitting in the current. When it got too much for him he would just move to a calm spot. My marine beta is like that too. Just sits there in the current fighting the water when there are plenty of calmer areas in the tank. I've got 5 maxi jet 1200's on my tank.
