Video isn’t the best but it looks okay to me. You want it to sway gently in all directions.

You want it to sway gently in all directions. One directional flow will stress the frogspawn

wdym by sway gently? how would I do that?

Try moving the powerhead an inch higher and aim it at the surface of the water? That might allow for the flow to spread around a little more. It’s going to require a little experimentation before you get it right

im thinking, since there are no settings besides how much flow it outputs(there is a ring that restricts water) and since its big, should I return and invest in another?(preferably under $70)any ideas?

You can aim it at a corner and create a lower gyre effect

This should be controllable. If too big, you can add screening around the back of pump which will reduce intake and flow rate
