Another flow question

I was wondering if I have too much flow, I have good current in my tank which seems to push my clown around, he really has to swim hard to get around is that normal or should I move my powerheads around.
Thanks

I've had the same problem with my small juvenile clown. I tried the clownfish forum and didn't get a lot of answers but nobody seemed too concerned with him getting sucked into the Koralia PH. My clown just hangs out in the corner of the tank, out of the current as much as possible - doesn't make for much of a display as I can hardly see him but he doesn't seem to mind and still eats well when I turn off the PH to feed.
Hopefully when he's bigger he will pick a new hang out. BTW - My GPH turn over is about 30X with 2 Koralia #3 in a 55gal. Good luck.

clowns always look like they are fitting to swim. 30x turnover or even 40x turnover they should be fine. I have 30x turnover in my 150 and they love to play in the current.
