I have a 60 Cube aquarium with a Modular Marine overflow with two return pumps. What would be some good powerheads for a SPS Heavy tank. I’ll list a few options, feel free to add in more.

2 Nero 5’s
2 Nero 3’s
1 Nero 5, 1 Reefwave 25
2 MP10’s
2 MP40’s

Let me know what you have had success with.
 
Mine is still in the very early stages so haven't added coral yet, but I threw 2 MP10 on the back wall of my 60 cube and they work great. Very little in the way of dead spots, and flow is respectable at 50%. Flow is pretty dang good at 100% reef crest.

Another option to consider would be to do something like a gyre on the back upper center and a couple low profile pumps like the nero 3 on the side walls facing each other.
