Water flow distortion.
I recently bought a zeroedge from a good friend. Allthough this is not plumbed like others that I have seen. At the moment i am not happy with image I have in the tank. It's not crystal clear glass image and some of the sides are distorted as well.*
Some useful information:
Tank was leveled before filling with water and after as well.
It's hard plumbed to a Mag 9.

I'm wondering if the pump is too strong or my plumbing is wrong.*
I do plan to keep some sps, so that is why I thought I needed all that flow.
please look at pictures below. Feel free to coment in any ideas you may have.*

I know this is a bit late based on the date you posted this. I have a 46 gallon zero edge, the biggest thing is to have it leveled, as best you can. Secondly, I have my water nozzles aimed at rocks, each other, so that the flow is not concentrated in specific directions, you want the water to fall over the edges. I don't know if this helps, hopefully you have this running to your liking after 4 months, but just thought I'd weigh in
