im planing on using mainly maximods for flow in the mainly sps 150 im setting up. And of course the suction cups suck and fall off pretty easy. Whats everyone using to mount these? I like the seio mounts cause of how you can aim the power head where you want and it still doesnt make the powerhead stick out to far.

I saw these but they look like they stick out pretty far.

they also have these but you cant aim the powerhead.

Also found these sure grips, look nice but cant aim the powerhead with them.

Is aiming the powerheads not needed as much as im thinking?
So what im looking for is some type of magnet mount that you can aim, is compact like the seio one, and is a good price. Are there any out there?

Thanks in advance

See this link below. It might help, and then again it might not.

yea just saw you posted it, looks great and gives me some ideas. Problem i have with that is i have a glass tank and no brace to mount the locline too.

Maybe i could use one of the magnets that are sold and use a small section of locline to act as a swivel? like 2 sections would be good. do you think this would work?

Sure I do not see why not. Glad it gives out some ideas other than the normal.
