In my 30 gallon cube I just had my powerhead in mid level slightly pointed down so the corals had flow. It was 400gph though and I had an overflow/surface skimmer so I never needed to point the powerhead at the surface for oxygen exchange. Maybe if you're going to use 2 powerheads get 2 that do 200gph otherwise my set up was great with one 400gph. My roomy has a 30 gallon as well and he uses a 400gph maxijet and his fish love it. Your clown is probably stressed from too much current. You should give it a couple of days and let him settle down. My clowns stay in the corner like that if I change anything. They're emotionally sensitive lol. Hope this helps.

How long have you had the clown? It could take it a little time to get used to the changed environment. i wouldn't worry too much. Clownfish are pretty resilient.
