I have the MP40wQD Propeller Pump w/ Wireless QuietDrive Driver which will be connected through ReefLink. My aquarium is 36 long by 24 wide by 24 deep. I will be doing multiple scheduled modes Lagoon, Tidal Swell, Night. I would like to have top zone in image high flow, middle zone would be medium and bottom zone low flow. Placing the MP40 on the side of the tank, what would be the best placement top to bottom and front to rear to meet these flow patterns.

I think you are asking a single pump to do more that it's designed to do.

After digging deeper into the Vortech pump I found a calculator that provided me with it's capability. Below is the result of plugging in the specs for my tank and a single MP40.
