just upgrade the tank to 60x30x24, plan to use 4 Mj mod 1200 for circulation.
Do you think it is enough and where should I place them to get the most effect ?
Thanks,

what are you keeping in there? I don't remember how much the modkits up the flow on a mj1200, but I would consider that a low-flow tank.

Not nearly enough Flow unless your return pump makes up the difference.

I have 2 MP40s in a 90. I know it's over kill but when I upgrade to my custom 52x26x23 I should be in real good shape. It's better to have too much and tune it down then to have very little.
In terms of placement it all depends on your rockscape, corals, and desired look.

4 mj mod = 6400 gph, could be more but just say 6400 for the safe side.

I would just get Some Big Koralia's Stage 5 or larger IMO
