Flow in Nano's

Can I get some descriptions/pictures of where you all keep your powerheads for flow in your nano's? It seems that no matter where I place or aim the powerhead I'm getting a dustcloud in the water. I'm only using a koralia nano so I doubt too much flow is the problem - just the positioning. Thanks!

i run a nano koralia in my 14g.... use the magnet and place the powerhead on the back wall right next to the return flow... so magnet would be in left chamber... then point the powerhead straight to the front of the tank... itll move the surface water a little and stilll give you good flow without so much " sand dust"...

 
i have the standard 5.5gallon and i have a powerhead aimed up from the far left corner at where my filters return water comes in the middle of my tank. The flow continues across to the far right wall hits it comes forward towards the front viewing glass and makes a loop back around across the front of my sand and back to the powerhead. Its a pretty good set up actually, good flow across the sandbed where my corals mostly are and it just runs out of gas when it gets back to the powerhead
