I am cycling a 63 gallon freshwater tank, it has two eheim 2213s on it. I was wondering what size powerhead I would need to provide the correct amount of water agitation. The tank will be stocked with two schools of tetras, two pairs of rams, and a single pleco (maybe an angelfish eventually) thanks

Ps it will be quite heavily planted with twisted valis, amazon swords and frogbit.
 
I'd say you'll get enough agitation for sure. Not much is needed for gas exchange.

As for circulation, I'm not familiar with the Eheim line but I would guess that with two you'll be able to position the outputs well enough to prevent dead spots.
