Power heads

I currently have a 75 gal reef. I have 2owerheads that came w the tank but have no clue what gph they are. One has a pretty strong current and the smaller one not so much.

My question is, what is a good power head setup for the tank? I have one in each rear corner pushing towards the front center. I would like to replace the smaller one with one with more power. What do you suggest . Or if I get a new one put the smaller one somewhere else.

Btw everything I my tank is doing great I would just like a little more flow. A wavemaker would be nice but that could be later down the road
 
I have had mine setup in previous tanks to push water at each other from the sides. They were hooked up to a red sea wave maker. Alternately going on and off and occasionally on at the same time.
Also a lot will depend on what you are going to keep in your tank. sps like lots flow ..lps not so much.... softies even less..
 
Thanks for the reply. I probably have a good amount since I have mostly ops softies and mushrooms. My corals sway a little bit but I see tanks where it looks a lot more flow
