Heya. I like sand in my tank. Sand is good; sand is wonderful; sand is all over my corals and LR. Ahhgh!

The 6080 is apparently just a bit too much flow. My tank is 60x18x21. I have the Stream positioned as high in the water column as possible, pointing it from the right-rear corner of the tank, towards the front-center pane.

Does anyone know how to knock off about 1/5th of the output? It is a 6080, so it's either On or Off. It puts out about 1250gph. Seems to me that if I restricted the intake screen, that that would reduce the outflow. But will that harm the pump?

TIA for any ideas/thoughts. ..Karl
