I have one Mp10 in my breeder, mostly lps & few softies. I can't seem to get my flow right. Either it's too much for the lps or not enough to reach the other side of the tank. If I turn it up my lps kind of closes up, will they eventually get used to it or do I need to get another mp10 for the other side of the tank?

uhh multiple powerheads maybe the solution for your problem. id turn it up and give your coral a few hours to adjust before i spent the money though. also you can use your return to help with flow issues. i have a 40 breeder as well i use a jebao ow-10 and ow-25( they are very affordable) with 2 power heads i was able to solve my flow issues. good luck and im sure someone else will chime in. you may post pics, so they can see your rock work. good luck

Like @Grimreefer89 said, you're probably going to need multiple powerheads. I currently have two 40 breeders and have had them for years in the past. Both have two powerheads and that helps me achieve the broad flow that I need without blasting the skin off of corals, and that includes anything from zoas to sps.
