bait tank options? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Am testing out using a 6v on a 360 GPH pump in a Shimano Bristol Bay livewell this very minute.

I had a 12v on it before and it worked well for even the sensitive baits like sardines.

With a 6v, I am not sure if there is enough circulation going on... looks a little weak.

The Bristol Bay tanks have inflow and exhaust both at the top too and it didn't seem to be a problem in the past. Could it be that the 6v just doesn't deliver enough juice to properly circulate the tank?
