240 gal Reef Waveboxes, Streams, etc. - Flow Advice

oldtimer - you can never have enough flow. just ask Steve :D
I'm trying add more flow and keep my sand on the floor ;)
 
In my 185g tank + 120g sump I have two 4,5 m3 RedDragons feeding separate returns from a single sump - gravity fed. The returns are on the opposite sides of the tank fitted with Loclines.
Additionally I have a Tunze 6201 built-in in the artificial rock made by German company - it's called Reef Keramik - it is custom made for this Tunze and it makes it completly unobtursive to the display.
As far as the Tunze Wavebox is concerned to run two of them they have to be placed oposite to each other i.e. on both ends of the tank. When I was planning my tank I planned next to the outflow a custom made chamber with a hole for placing a Tunze Wavebox - this is concealed by the frame and saves on seeing the black box in the tank. Actually I removed the pump from the black box and the glass chamber in the tank serves as the box.
The flow is more than sufficient and the sight of polyps swaying in the wave is truly amazing!!!
