Roger, please help with location of my 2 streams

[deansreef]

I have a 6000 on a controller and a 6060, my tank is a 180 gallon all glass aquarium with 2 overflows in the back, where should I place the streams?

I want them where I will not have dead spots anywhere including the back of the tank!!

Can you help me decide where to place them for best flow?

Thanks

Dean

In all fairness I think no dead spots is an unrealistic expectation of 2 pumps. Their will be some dead areas behind rock structures and that is pretty much unavoidable unless you add a couple more pumps or a wavebox. Largely this is a trial and error process and I can only give some generic ideas. I would try the back corners aimed to the front center first.

ok, thank you for the quick response Roger. if i point the unit towards the front glass wont most of the flow be lost hitting the glass?

[rvitko]

It depends, if the angle is right the flow is deflected and not lost, if it hits it too sharply than you lose the flow, the idea is to make a broad circular current.

I will try this and let you know how it works out, thanks roger
