My tank plan is to be an SPS dominated tank but also love torches... since this is my most expensive piece of coral I would love to make it last and be happy.

Around the 1 min mark you can see it get whipped around quite a bit. I have 2 mp40's running around 30% in reef crest mode on my 70g 4ft tank.

 
No, not too much flow.
My torches get a lot more flow than that in my tank and they grow great.
 
i second that.
the goal is just to avoid blasting the coral with direct flow. Random, chaotic shifting flow keeps them happy.
 
They like doing the blow up man wave. They dont mind current, preferably random flow.
