power heads

so ive been making excellent progress on my way to launching my first sw reef, but now i need to figuer out flow if you will hehe.

anyhow i have an 85 gal 48x18x22 drilled with overflow, 29 gal sump with about 1000 gph return, im interested in some xenia, zoa, some shrooms, and down the road a clam thats the goal right there atm.

what im wondering is what are some good brands to look at, or maybe some good reading material on what one should look for in a power head. like is it better to get as much flow out of say two or spread it out a bit with lets say four heads for instance.

ive had a few people mention a closed loop system but im just not brave enough to drill glass, and let me tell you what loading this thing up and taking it somewhere isnt exactly on my to do list if you will lol

thanks for reading
