how to place 3 seios


Hello

Please see the 75g tank picture below. How should I place the seios to have max flow and no movement of sand mainly in the front. The seios at the right and left corner back are 1500g and left front 1100g. Note there are also 3x 500g powerheads at the back of the rocks from right to left. One is connected to a pipe with 3 holes for a flow from the back to the front below the rocks. I believe detritus is a problem so want to solve and planning to put soft corals to the tank.



Thks

I like your thinking on the three powerheads to do nothing but blow under and through your reef. I set my systems up with massive amounts of flow didicated to just this and think its important.

As far as the seios....i would place the 2 bigger ones in the left and right corneres somewhere and aim them across the tank with their streams crossing paths. The third smaller one I would put somewhere that would also cross paths...but would seriously be breaking up the surface as it does it.

You should also consider a Seio wave controller. I have two of the 1100's and love 'em great ph's in my opinion
