Powerhead Adjustment

So in previous posts I have stated that I have a 40 breeder, 2 koralia 1150's under AI Prime HD lighting. I stress over these simple things so I need some help. I want softies (Zoanthid garden to be specific) and LPS (Hammer, frogspawn, torches, acans, brains) and I'm stressing over my powerhead placement. I don't know if it is blowing the right way, I point it a little down and a sandstorm is made, I put it in the middle and I'm afraid it's not blowing on where I want it. Help!

http://imgur.com/a/wDneb Tank pics, the rock on the bottom left is where I want a zoanthid garden and it has no flow (is that good for zoanthids?) I'm stressing now lol

I would place it a little lower blowing up towards the surface.

I suggest you go take a nice long daily walk.. Its helpful in relieving stress...

You shouldn't stress over such little things/silly in life..

"powerhead placement" is certainly not going to make or break a tank..
Are they in the tank?... Good..
Have you stopped the sandstorm? Good..
Done..

Now go find something else to worry about.. as you're done with powerhead placement..
