I'm already finding that food goes right through my five 2" Cichla. They're going in my 125 soon and want to make it as easy to clean as possible. If I stick my 325 gph powerhead on the right wall, it should push debris down to the left, correct? I'm not saying I won't have to gravel vac the right side, but most of the fish waste should accumulate on one side, right? Anybody have any experience with this technique?

Well putting the power head on the right side will not necessarily move it to the left. It depends on how much current there is. Since the water will stop at the left wall the water will rotate back to you. Once you start it you will see where it will leave the waste.
