Here's my tank! It's been up about one month give or take a few days. I'm running two 1400gph koralia PH's and I have a Mag 7 on my return. So plenty of flow. For the exception of the several rocks sitting in the center everything is in the same place.
My problem right now is placement of the powerheads to get the best surface break and tank flow without trowing my sand everywhere (which is what has happened in my last few positions). The biggest obstacle is the rock face in front of my overflow which limits my angles with the powerhead. My goal is to not limit flow to that corner without having to move that rock.
suggestions?

Also, a lot of my sand disturbing is happening in the bottom left corner when the powerhead is palced neat the overflow on the back wall, and when I place the left powerhead on the left wall and the two currents cross and create a vortex in the center. I'm also unsure to the direction of my return.
