Pick up a cheap RW-20. This thing throws mad flow full length accross any tank. I couldnt beleive how much water they push for the money.

That would be a "clean" way to get flow end to end, but I think I would regret not being able to peer through that side.

My tank is a shallow peninsula has rw8's on each end plus a mocean 2000. Flow is pretty good but as it grows in I may need to put a few more on the ends. Only issue I have is tank only has 11.5" of water so bigger powerhead were not a option

On my last tank I used directional bulkheads and was able to get really good laminar flow.
