Powerhead placement

Where should i place my 3 maxi jet powerheads for no dead spots in my 55 gallon? Here is a pic where they currently are:

 

Personally I'd use some flake food and watch where it's going to settle and then make adjustments.

 

Generally, I would say one on the side pointing up and then two in the back wall pointing towards each other. But trijam mentioned a good idea to be sure where to point them at.

 

lol i wish flakes could settle at the bottom before my piglet little fish ate them! Haha

 

+1 this is how I had mine set up wjhen I had my 55 gallon, now that I have a bow front its even more complicated

 

could u draw me a diagram and post it on here on like paint and take a screen shot or something lol. I dont understand you.

 

yeah bow fronts are a bit more complicated. try putting a powerhead on the back wall, in the center of the tank. Point it frontward. Water will "bounce" off the bow for randomized flow in that area.

Be right back with that for ya.

 

lol okay i get it now thanks man.

 

I use a turkey baster to place air bubbles into intake and you can follow the flow of water without adding food. Also I would invest in Eco Mod kits they really increase the flow rate I use purchased 2 kits and can only use 1 at the top of the tank. 120g. reef
