120 Gallon Circulation

Hello

New 120 gallon tank (upgrade from existing 90g). I have an FX4 on it, which I think is sufficient for filter purposes. However, I am finding the flow/circulation a bit low at one end of the tank (opposite the FX4 output).

I am thinking about adding a power head to circulate water at the opposite end. Good idea? Any suggestions on kind and placement in the tank?

Thanks

Seems like a good one if you have stock that like water flow. If they dont a good substitute could be an airstone or two to break the water tension.
You could go low or high on the power head depending on how much flow you want as well.
