Powerhead placement

[patriot54]

Where should I place my powerhead in my eclipse system 12?

my guess would be on the oposite end of where the filter pulls in the water. i would point it upwards though. like put it near the bottem 3" off the bottemish then point it upwards. hidew it with some rock and you should be fine. there really is no right and wrong answer its where your fell it works the best(dosnt mix up sand, doesnt cause a whirlpool, etc...)
