waterflow help

I have a 65gal with an Aquaclear 300 and a wet/dry pushing 600gph. This is 900gph which calculates to over 13X waterlow. I have been told that 20-25X waterflow is more ideal . I have also heard that if you have an anenome(I have a sebae) that they do not like too much water movement.
What do I do ? Do I buy a powerhead and increase flwo or not ?Help anyone ?

Welcome to TRT GKG!

May want to post this, or have it moved, to GRD (General Reef Discussion).

Anemones actually love water flow, must be turbid (very random) tho. Yes on adding more PH's; also, do a search on "CLS" here, see if that's something you might want to try.
