So I have a 70 gallon tank, and I have three pumps on the right side of the tank. One lower back (which runs none stop at a high rate. the other is above it towards the back and it runs intermittingly and different rates. The thirds is towards the front of the tank and it too runs intermittingly). So my question is can I add more pumps, and or adjust my pumps for example, move one of my intermittent pumps to the left side of the tank etc. my goal is to add more flow to assist with detritus. I am new to the hobby and this tank has been running for close to two years with the same format. and each day I'm learning new ways to help keep my tank clean. Will the flow adjustment and higher rate of flow mess with or harm fish coral and anemones?

thank you for your time.

You will probably want to set one of the pumps on an opposite panel. A lot depends on the tank set up inside and you corals.

This vid may help with your set up.

 
So I checked out the video and plus many others. However none of them address if changing the power heads after being placed in a certain position for a long period will effect the corals/anemones/fish.
