Read from other thread that filtration / current too strong.I will input my 2 cents here since you started this thread.
As a general guide try not to exceed 4 time per hour of filtration to avoid strong current.For eg, if your tank has 50L of water the pump capacity should not exceed 200L/hr.
All pumps carry this information so do some maths before buying.Bear in mind that air pumps also creates currents which are also specified in L/hr.
