I have heard that it is best to position one in each rear corner of the tank and have them pointed toward the front middle of the tank. I don't know where you would add a third powerhead.
 
As above, with the 3rd one somewhere int he mdidle behind live rock blowing towards the front of the tank through some crevice/hole etc.

You might end up like me and want to take all the power heads out, get an external pump or some other kind of plumbing, and add a few SCWD's soon though. Than it'll be a hassle to get that 3rd powerhead out.
