My one filter is a aquion 30 filter and it has a high flow. Will this filter be ok as my juvi Chiclids seem to fight the flow.

It is a 46 gallon tank, the gph is 200 and I have 2 yellow labs, 2 red zebras and 2 acei.

Also with these fish their aggression is reduced when stocked with 1m to 4f or try for a all male tank. Since they juvies a tank upgrade will be needed in no time.
As far as filtration you should shoot to turn your tank over 7-10 times per hour, where as your around 4.
