Ok so you guys can see my setup in my forum sig. I have 4 power heads 2 800gph and 2 1300gph let me give you in detail what I have as far as coral is concerned.
2 duncan's
1 frogspawn
2 different zoa colonies
1 button polyp
1 orange monti
1 star polyp
1 mushroom ricordea
My fish list is also in my sig.
I do plan on getting more coral sps, lps lets just assume a little of every type.
I was wondering if I could remove the 2 800gph powerheads and just keep the 2 1300gph powerheads in there.

Currently I have the 2 800gph on the back wall and the 2 1300gph on the side walls and they are each facing each other to kind of dissipate some of the flow cause any other way they stir up my sad bed very fine grain and some a little more coarse its a mix.
What are your thoughts on this?

Then I wouldn't take any way cause ur going to probably need a lot if that flow for ur SPS just make sure u still have some low flow areas for ur LPS and other low flow corals Tht u might get....... As long as ur corals are doing good then u would not worry about it
