    HI , I have a question ,, I have 2 water jets coming out of my return pump, what angle do you strive for?

    Do you point the water jets straight down?
    Do you want the water to ripple??
    Somewhere inbetween?

    as always

    Thanks in advance

    You do need some surface agitation.
