Ok so i hate the flow in my tank, ive got 200 lbs of live rock, my tank is 72x30x18.

At the moment ive got 4x hydor koralia 1400gph and a 1400 return pump but that doesnt count cuz its surface flow.
Ive got tons of detrius, i aquascaped it many times and still have too much getting stuck- i think its just the type of rock because its just full of golf ball sized caves.

I was thinking of wavemakers, Is there something that will control my powerheads AND control my system like a reefkeeper or apex etc... What do you think is better, to spend on wavemaker or getting a aquarium control to randomize and wave up my aquarium?

Any thoughts or ideas I havnt thought of would be great.

You need bigger powerheads than the 1400s. For budget pumps, The Koralia Magnums, or non controllable Tunze Streams. If you want to spend more, controllable Tunze or Vortechs,
