Can you have too much water flow for a Heteractis Magnififa/ Ritteri? I have a 55 g and i have 2 korilla #2, 1 maxjet 1200, and i am using the Rapids Pro filtering system.
 
i do not believe you can. ive heard of people having theirs blasted directly by their closed loop or sump returns, but i myself prefer them to be intermittently blasted. random flow from all directions will be better for them.

in my 60 gallon cube i have two korallia 4s and 2 inch sea swirls that push something like 800 gph each. i still want more water movement.
 
I have a closed loop output that aims at a crack in the rock structure to keep the mag from wandering into coral. It hasn't crossed the divide yet but seems to like to be blasted pretty hard. It would only have to move back a bit and would be out of the direct flow, but it hangs some tentacles into the blast. I've always given mine lots of indirect flow, which they seem to love.
