Wave action????

Tried posting in the Tunze forum but not a lot of people on there,was hoping someone here might have an opinion...Iam currently using 2 6101's with controller in my 135 they are placed on the side walls towards the front glass with flow pointed towards rock. What would the best placement and settings be to create a back and forth wave motion? I would try a wave maker but the tank is only 18in wide and 3/8 thick and have read not use a WM with the thinner glass plus not a lot of room due to narrow tank.....so any suggestions on settings???? thanks for input and happy new year!!

I would position them on the sides angled towards the front. Get yourself a multicontroller, for even more random flow patterns. Then you can purchase more 6101 or even 6201 as your coral grows and needs more flow.





I now have (3) 6200 on each side and it really helps with dead spots...
