10gallon reef tank

[Masoniac]

Have started my reef tank 3 months ago I have some zoa's and a pulsing Xenia. I can't seem to get the flow in my tank right it's either to much or not enough. Please help!

We've had our 6 gallon for 8 months now. We have yet to keep any alive. Different species require different flow and lighting...which is kinda hard to do in a small tank. We decided to wait until we are ready for a 30 gallon tank. Something tells me they'll fair better in a larger tank. Good luck to you...and I wanted you to know that I didn't want what happened to us...happen to you!!!

What kind of lighting? What gph power heads? Are parameters all 0? (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate)

Zoas and xenia really don't need much flow. The filter if their is one will probably provide enough flow.

I was told they need to be in a high flow area. I'll keep me power head off and see how it does then
