But do u think its ok for my 45cm x 24cm x 24cm tank? Now i'm using Eden 501 (300L/H). After putting bout 60 pcs of biohomme, the flowrate still quite strong leh. my plants n moss are swaying a little due to the current.

Bro you need to match your flowrate with your chiller, else is either your chiller kick in & out very often which will shorten your chiller lifespan or your temp of your tank is very different from your tank.

Get a valve attach to the outlet of ur canister u can play with the flow rate. In the event of upgrading to a bigger tank u can still use back the canister and chiller.

try facing the rainbar to the back of the tank and adjust the angle to see whether u can get a comfortable current lor..

Ok thanks for all replies! Anyone using Hailea 100A? Does it run on compressor or TEM? I have heard different people saying different things before. Just wanna clear the air. Thanks!
