SPS tank and chaotic water flow

I have 3x6105, 1x6055, 1x7042, Wavebox, Multicontroller 7095 for my 120G reef tank (details inb my signature). Is there any Tunze article / link you can provide me where I can learn how best to place and what programs to use to get the best possible water flow for my SPS reef tank?
 
There is no specific placement articles because everyone has a different setup. You, for instance have a lot of powerheads. The idea is to create flow that covers every inch of your tank, no dead spots and then you want that flow to be random so take advantage of your controller. Other than that, start with your largest pumps on the sides of the tank and then position the rest in places along the back wall and you should be set.
 
Hi Roger...are you able to help by pointing me to any reading material, or advise from Tunze on my query? Many thanks...
 
In general for a tank of this size ( I assume 120 gallons), 2 6105 is all that is needed and the wavebox is a nice addition. I would set up the wavebox as a stand alone unit running all the time and the 2 6105's one in each back corner running Interval 2 with a 6 hour interval. The pumps should be set to pulse from 30-100% every 3 seconds.
