AP12G (4 chambers, intake on left, return on right side)I have a MJ900 as a return to loc lines split. One pointing to left side glass wall in the middle moving surface water, then the other is pointing the same direction but further to the back wall to help movement near intake.

I also have nano koralia on the opposite side of glass (side where intake is) that is 1/2 down and pointing diagonally down.

Is there anything wrong with this or do you have any suggested improvements?

Thx

Sounds good to me, however its almost an impossible question to answer. It really depends on how your rocks are set up, etc. Just look for dead spots and adjust your pumps as necessary.

remember to keep your hands out of the tank as much as possible. do you have a wavemaker for your powerheads?
