Return pump flow makes coral placement difficult

[Schmidt Aquatics]

Hey,

I would like to know how you guys manage to place any coral in an area of the tank where the return pump blasts constant flow to. In my tank it is the two front corners of the aquarium, where a constant jet of flow from the return pump cascades down the front glass, and blasts the two lower corners with high constant flow. This means I have no success placing any coral in those areas. Any advice on how to deal with this? Even with the return pump turned down, it will still blast thea corners with almost constant flow.

Random flow generators, if you don't already have them are good for diffusing the flow without any real restriction. There would still be fast pulses but not a constant flow in one spot.
