This is the first episode of our next a BRStv Investigates experiments in which we examine how much water flow is ideal for a reef tank to optimize coral growth. Healthy growth not only satisfies our desire to create lush aquatic gardens but also is the best indicator of the overall metabolic health of the corals we care for. The Experiment Tweaking aquarium powerheads almost to the point of obsession is common among reefers looking to optimize coral growth and health.
