powerhead question

I a setting up a 205 peninsula tank. Overflow/drain at one end and return at the other. Trying to figure out the good ole powerhead question.

I was thinking of getting 2 Hydor magnum 8's. Wondering if that is too much-too little or a poor option. It will be a fish with mostly softies tank.

Appreciate the input.

If you want the flow to really reach the other side with the powerheads both on the short side, I would look at the Tunze's as they manage to throw the flow a little further. The Koralia's are nice, but they are a little softer and don't reach quite as far.
