You can turn down (as many members on here do), just don't turn off. Its the current and wave action at the surface that aerate your water. I have a high bioload but lots of hiding places and areas of lower flow so I leave my wavemakers on all the time. The fish don't seem to mind and neither do the corals.

I use the jebao apex module to program my powerheads and have them set at minimum for the night, before that I had a led light strip in my cabinet on a timer and the pumps would be set to night mode.
I leave my return pump at the same lvl so the circulation stays the same, just the powerheads are reduced.

I use night mode on my Jebao RW-15, my electronics are in a closed cabinet so I have a small LED light on a timer, works well my return flow stays constant.
