Hello..
I have recently added multiple plants to my community aquarium, water weed, cabomba, and anubias nana, but i have noticed that my current is somehow strong, it might not be, i saw plants swinging and binding towards the gravel, i use an Eheim filter which is the 5e 450 canister, flow rate is usually between 1300-1400 ltr per hour, i don't use the spray bar it came with, it makes a lot of current to the fish, so lately i have removed it and added a Y Shape splitter to the pipe, so water now goes in two directions, fish looks happier in swimming and plants are growing towards the surface not binding, below is a video of the current and how it moves on the surface, am just wondering, is it a good step to take especially angels doesn't like strong current and my plant looks better now..
I have tried to find an Eheim duckbill outlet with double nozzles but nothing online, so i have created mine using a quick connector that is usually used for hoses and gardening..
