flow help/advice needed-pic included

[giants4pc]

I know (at least I think I know) that I have enough flow in my 90 BB setup. I have 2 maxi mod's 1200's, 1 seio 1100, 1 rio pump and one unknown name. I also have a mag 9 for a return which enters the tank with a split flow (it is cut back a great deal bc 900gph is too much on the return), You can see the maxi's and seio in the pic. The other two sit atop the starboard and basically keep the bottom clean. I just started adding SPS frags. For the most part, they seem to be doing well, but I just don't see their polyps 'swaying' as they did from the mother colonies where I got the frags. Are these powerheads not positioned in the most ideal position? I don't even have room if I wanted more flow and I already think they are obstrusive looking enough. Any suggestions?

Why not just play around and adjust them until the corals have the flow they need?

I've tried...I can't really hang them anywhere else bc of the hanging hardware. It just seems as though I can't get all the areas.

Add more flow

 

[Amphiprion]

Sure, why not

 

[giants4pc]

there is no place to add more flow without the tank looking like a box of powerheads. They are already enough of an eyesore.

I am not sure about adding more flow without looking like a "box of powerheads". How about s sea swirl?

One thing that I would do if I were you is get that rio out of your tank before it nukes it.
