Jumped into sps

oh really? no return pump, no sump, just 2 pumps.

There is good flow in the back wall, but not in front, not where those SPS are.

SEe for yourself

does that qualify as good flow? Doesn't look like those polyps are being theared from the flow

It is really gently all over except in the back and there are no coral there. Everywhere else it is very gentle motion and not much in front. Of course there is some flow, but nothing I would qualify as high flow for sure.

You my dear do not have low flow.

Tough to say with that video, but 2100gph is a lot of water moving in that size tank. And flow doesn't need to be forceful, I have a gentle wave back and forth, but that is 1800 pounds of water moving around.
If you switched to a single small aquaclear, you would notice the thing growth that we've discussed.

OK then I guess I have strong flow, even though the polyps on my sps are bearely moving. I had no idea that was still strong flow.

I though to qualify as strong flow, the polyps had to move more than this. As it is, they occasionaly move, from time to time.

Here is a full tank shot. Does that quality as good flow?

Haha I wouldn't consider 28X high flow either, your more in the middle.
