I have been fighting the battle of fine sand vs my jebao since day 1... Dialed back it still kicks around the sand like a tornado came through. I have tried bouncing the flow off the front, side and back glass and it just changes where the sand gets kicked up. I have tried sitting the pump at almost the bottom of the tank and pointing up towards the overflow, the fish look like they are salmon swimming up stream and the corals aren't happy. Currently I have it pointed at the top of the water running on low, while this seems to keep the sand from moving I feel my corals aren't happy.
On to the questions -
1. Should I keep the WP40 pointed up to the top and add 2 jebao rw-8's on either side of the tank to create the water flow for the corals?
2. Should I sell off the WP40 and just grab rw-15's?
3. Can I mix the fine sand with crushed coral to give the bed weight? Is this even an option?
4. Replace the sand with crushed coral completely.
On 3&4 I think i will still need an additional pump but won't know when/if I swap.
Thanks guys
