Well, the answer is it depends. What kind of corals are you going to keep? Even if you have SPS, if there is a hammer or zoos or other "soft" corals, you don't want really high flow. If you're just going SPS, then load up. I had about 6,500GPH in my 75 with all SPS and bare bottom. Corals loved it, fish put up with it well. If I had a LPS or softie in there, they probably would have had tissue removed. So it depends....

I had a 110X flow rate in my 94 and everything liked it soft, lps, sps fish.. the thing is not all flow rates are the same, mine was a very dispursed flow and my rock work created regions of lower flow for the softies.

the problem with the powerheads that rotate are they are the typical pressure washer style, very high direct flow, not disperse like a seio, korilla or tunze.
You could look into one of the wavy sea units as they will help with the disperse flow and move random water around.
