hello again, i currently have 2 maxijet mp900's when they are on they kick up the sand and make the water cloudy, now i know all i would probably have to do is just point the p\h in a different direction but what i'm wanting to know is how long til the sand stay's? even when a chromis swims close it will kick it up.
also i have the p/h on the same timer as the pc lighting should i have them run all the time? i was trying to create a day and night -sort of
another thing i also have my protien skimmer on with the lights, bad idea?
