Positioning of the PH's.....???

[seth16]

I will be getting 3 (maybe 2) Maxi-jets with 1500gph flowrate. I know i dont have my setup yet, so it is hard to give advice, but can i see some pics of sucessful flows in tanks, and the positioning of the powerheads? I want everything in my tank to be perfect, that includes the flow...lol

Thanks
Seth

this is going to totally depend on your tank.

Rock and coral will block flow. You will pretty much have to aquascape the tank the way you want it, then work the PH's around the layout. If needed, i have seen where Mr Bojangles added pvc to the outlet of the ph's to move the flow around.

In my 75, the 2 seio are almost across the tank from each other on the sides poiting toward the center. One is a little farther back then the other. this allows cross flow, but where the flows meet make a nice mixed turbulance. the spray bar across the back from the return flows from back to front. The galaxy that sits about in the middle seems to get whipped all around in different directions. And the xenia is in the lower left front and flows different too.
