water movement

[dsmmrm]

Hi all,

As I continue to get my new 75 gal fw set up I have another question.

I have an Emporer 400 hob and two penguin 1140 powerheads on my ugf. With all operating there is an awful lot of water movement. It looks like hurricane Ivan in there. Ultimately the tank will contain a small school of serpae tetras, a few cory cats, and a cae.

Can these fish tolerate a lot of current or should I scale back the filtration?

Well hurricane Ivan might be too much current for a school of Serpaes .

My powerheads have a mechanism to adjust the rate of flow. Try reducing it to tropical storm status and see if that helps. LOL
