Return plumbing on 150g Rubbermaid tub
Wondering how/where I should place the returns in a 150g rubbermaid frag tank. The frag racks will be about 10 inches from the bottom.
There will be 2 at roughly 1200 gph. Should they be opposite ends with circular flow? On one side blowing towards the other side (I will have 1-2 powerheads at around 1500gph)? Both on the same long side facing towards the opposite side?

I would say it is personal choice and what you have in the tank

The tank will be pretty mixed. Should this be a reason to have both returns on the same short end both blowing down the long end of the tank in the same direction?
