Anyone with a CPR refugium with chaeto

What kind of pump do you use in your refugium to move the chaeto around. Right now I have a maxi 1200 but it just pushes is against the wall and it stays there.

Usually the water moving through the sump is enough. As long as the chaeto isn't unhappy it doesn't really matter.

A 1200 is really to0 much pump to run on the CPR fuge,I would suggest using the 1200 in your tank and going with a smaller maxi or other pump. With a fuge you really dont want very much flow at all just enough to keep things from getting stagnant.
