You can use the FLO number and FLO graph to assess the overall level of flow in your tank.  Suggested flow 
ranges for varying types of marine aquariums: 
 

FLO Value 

Best For 

0-4 

Fish-only 

4-5 

Common LPS coral 

5-6 

Common SPS coral 

6-7 

High-flow SPS coral 

7-10 

Extreme flow for SPS coral 

 
You can use this number to compare to others who use the WAV in their aquarium or simply compare to your 
own history of FLO in your aquarium.   
 
You need to configure the FLOW tile after your WAVs are first installed.  To configure the tile, click the cog 
icon.   
 

 

 

 

Change the Tank Volume value to match the size of your tank. This should be just the tank volume, 
not system total water volume.
