seio pump placement

[volivier]

My tank is 135, 72" long, 24" tall, I think 18 deep. I have a seio 820 and 620 on the back facing front of glass. I bought two more seio 620 to replace my 20 watt maxijets, also more flow than the 1200 or 1000 MJ. Trying to figure out where to put the two seio's. Should they all 4 be on the back glass or put two on the sides.

I was told to get a seio too to replace my maxi-jet. I currently have a 1200 Maxi-jet right now to get a little extra flow in my 150 gallon tank besides my two over flows. I was just planning on using one pump to run my CLS when I put it in. I plan on making a shelf on the back of my canopy top to set it on. I know this doesn't help much but that is my plans.

LOL, thanks anyway. I wasn't told to change them out, I just used the electric calculator for my tank, and realized that the MJ 1000 and 1200 were 20 watt, while the seio 620 is 10 or so.....and they move more water, figured it would take around a year to pay off the seio from the savings on the electric bill.

stick them to algae magnets with Velcro and you can move them around all of the time. you are looking for detritus to either be kept in suspension to be removed by the skimmer or get piled up in nics piles that are easily accessed for siphoning during water changes.
