Powerhead Placement
I am going to be getting the final necessity for my seahorse tank, a EcoTech MP40. Not sure if this can even be answered but where would be a good place to place the powerhead? I'm not sure if I should go down low, up high, side of tank, etc. Do I pretty much just want to keep once side with high flow and it doesn't really matter specifically WHERE the flow is?
Thank you much |

IMO it will depend on your particular setup of rock, decor and filtration in the tank. You need basically flow to keep detritus/uneaten foods in suspension long enough for filters to trap it, but don't have any blast that can push a seahorse against something and damage it.
Once set up, you will most likely just have to experiment with positioning to find what works best for your tank.
