Bubbles and Flow for Cichlids

I currently have an XP3 Cannister, an Emperor 400 (which) will be removed when the bio filter builds up in the cannister), & 2 x 170gph PH's in a Mbuna tank.

Is there too much flow for a Cichlid environment?
What is the recommended flow?
Would a bubble disk hurt anything? The wife likes the way they look and I might put one in.

Thanks in advance.

What size tank? The bubbler should not matter. You may want to remove a powerhead.
