It's good for the corals, they like being bashed about a bit, like the waves would in the sea. Corals are very weird animals.
Marine tanks are just full of weird things. Love hearing the stories from friends and acquaintances who're into it.
my mom had one growing up. the person we got it from had a maroon clownfish that was full size. it would sometimes attack when my mom was doing stuff in the tank and even drew blood. she ended up trading it in to the dealer she bought stuff from and he put it in his display tank. youd think with now much she spent on the thing wed have had a generator of some kind but nope. i even suggested it. it sucked having to clean the tank after losing power for a week from a hurricane or winter storm.
Fish like it. And it moves the water around to get flow to corals and to kick crap into the overflow.
