There is quite a bit of flow on him. I have a Tunze stream 1600gph on the opposite side of the tank 5ft away facing him, and another sream 6000 (650-1800gph) above him...it creates alot of polyp movement and sway, I find it likes the flow, but you will be able to tell if there is too much flow by the expansion of the tips of the polyps-they stay small. My toadstool forms a cup in the middle, If my flow is too low I get a build up of whatever they shed!
