I don't think the 2 Koralia 3's will provide enough flow for SPS in a 90 gal.

I would rethink your lighting a bit. My 90 started with 4x54w T5(more like 4x80w when overdriven by IC 660 ballast). I ran that setup for 6 months and then redid my canopy to house 2 more T5's. After running (6) T5's for a couple months, I am now ditching the T5 plan and going with (2) 250w halides w/ (2) actinic T5's. The 4 are ok for fish only, 6 will "maintain" any corals and 8 would probally be great.
