i've set up my new tank for the zebs after the problems i had with 2 dying. now i have added an extra internal filter to the eheim 2028 external i have. i brought a 2252 which adds a lot of air with the diffuser. i can only really have it on or off as the in between just seems to cough and splutter. now my question is this too much air and flow as the whole tank is full of air bubbles and the flow is quite powerful i dont think the food will settle very aesily? thanks

Unsure to be honest, but my 3ft tank has 2 x 1800lph filter, so thats 36 times an hour filter and my fish breed no problems, I also have venturis on them and a 2 foot air wall, Dissolved Oxygen sits around about 8.0.
I have a few sheltered places for the fish to hide out of the flow, but they seem to avoid this and sit behind a rock and when the food comes winging past, they jump out grab it and take it in behind the rock.
