i have one maxi jet 900 on the left rear bottom of the tank pushing to the left and another on the right top part of the tank pushing downward toward the center... do i really need both? and is too much water movement bad?
its a 70 gallon tall oceanic......(about 3 ft wide)

I would say you a bit light on curculation and would recommend doing 4 . Do you have return line from a sump? And if you dont have a sump keep this in mind you want the water to turn over 20X's an hour the 2 900 maxi jet dont do near that.
