getting (2) 6101's setup help

[Jude]

Hi All,
I've just recently gotten two new 6101's to use on one of my tanks (to be controlled by AquaSurf) and was hoping I could get some advice on positioning them properly.

The tank will be - 72L X 23.5W X 28H Any advice on angle, hanging height, whether I should mount them on the side wall or back corners, etc would be greatly appreciated.

I'll really looking forward to getting them going as I've heard great things...
Thanks for reading

This is really a trial and error process and every tank is different but the general rule of thumb is about 6" below the surface, deep enough to avoid vortexes but shallow enough for good surface agitation. The pumps are generally placed in the backcorners and aimed to roughly the front center to diffuse and deflect the flow off the front glass.
