Hello all!

I am keeping a IMSR80 (80 gallon shallow tank) and I was wondering if I have enough flow in my tank. (tank dimensions 47.24" L x 23.62" W x 16.14" H)

I am running 2x Jebao SOW-4 at about 45% and for the most part my corals are doing okay atleast the LPS however my SPS corals aren't doing that well (Acropora in general) but Montipora and Pocilopora is doing well but I have a lot of fish waste collecting at the bottom of the tank)

I mostly have torches / hammers as well as some mushrooms my torches are being ripped apart from my current flow but kinda of wave around quite slowly.
