Flow and fish hangouts

[John Arnold]

Hi
I know you have to have good flow in planted tank but is it too strong so thst my fish hangout mostly in corner, pic attached, oase biomaster thermo 350



Usually in right hand colomn where flow is almost nought

Not necessarily, I note they near the intake for your filter and fish are not daft as they know they're a little morsels of food and other debris been drawn in into the intake. Why start chasing after them when you can wait for them to come to you.

Why!? It looks beautiful You could try repositioning the angle of your outflow, to encourage the fish to move out of the corner.

Yeah I'll second that. Changing the direction of the flow from the lily pipe as Fishtales has suggested might well be an option.

Answer.....Nope

I am not that into scaping to be honest with you. I like my tank to look reasonable and mainly functional for my fish. I am still in the baby stages of getting more real plants to grow in my low tech tank
