More might keep the tank cleaner, but I wouldn't say it's necessary. All depends how you like to keep up with the tank. :)

I have what's considered a moderate flow tank overall. Other thank the filer return line, I only have one powerhead for a 90. I just placed corals accordingly where some prefer stronger current, some prefer less. I'd start slow and you can always add or move particular corals closer to the power heads for more flow. If you want Acro's and zoas they prefer a stronger current (especially Acro's, and in my tank my zoas do the best where there's more current ).

That would actually be a nice rock layout if you were doing a coral tank. Tons of grow-out room!!!!

Alas....for fish you'll need a lot more hiding places. :)
