Hi all, I have had my new tank up for 4 months now and have noticed some issues with my flow and GHA and looking for recommendations. I currently have an AI orbit 2 mounted in the back right corner of the tank with one side slightly pointed up and the other side slightly down. I have dual returns where the left side is pointed down over a tall rock where some sps resides and the right is pointed towards the middle of the tank. My major deadspot is located in the back of the aquascape which is centered in the middle of the tank. Current corals are zoas, mushrooms, a single rose bubbletip anenome,gsp, a single hammer, kenya tree, and one piece of lepto. I have been battling with the right flow and was deciding on whether or not another powerhead should be purchased. I will get better pictures tonight but in the mean time here is one from a month ago

I have a 30" cube and the detritus spot is back (under rock) and left back. I do have 2 MP40 ramping up pretty high. How fast are your pumps going?
Here is the most recent picture, of how configuration is

I have the orbit 2 on 30-50% high variable flow and the simplicity return pump is a at 75%. I’m not sure on the gph of the return as it was from my old 40g breeder
