Where to place the PWR HDS??

[kimkissyfish]

Hi,
I have 2 301 powerheads running in my 75g SW tank. One on each side of the tank facing a bit inward and downward.
Should they be toward the top or middle or bottom and should they both be at the same height or different heights?
Thanking you kindly, kim

What you want to establish is to have water flow, so there's no dead area. So you can place one on each end. You can have them directed so you are circulating the water in a circle, one shooting across the back of the tank, the other shooting towards the front. Main idea is to keep water movement.

You can place them on the top of each side, however, you can place them where you feel looks the best.

I agree! ...just make sure (as I have been recently informed) not the create the whirlpool effect. You may want to consider more powerheads to avoid dead spots....(still a newbie)
