I read something today I hadnt heard of before - the need for some surface agitation/turbulence. I have a 100G tank with 4 nozzles and plenty of circulation but have all of the nozzles pointed down into the tank. I can see the water moving at the surface but it is very flat - no turbulence at all. (if I put dry flake food on the surface it quickly gets pulled into the drain box).
My pump is a 1200 GPH pump and at 5 feet produces 800 gallons per hour flow.
Anyway, just wanted to get opinions on whether surface agitation is desired, recommended and if so, to what degree.
Thank you in advance.
