I point mine at each end in the middle facing each other.Also a u.v. sterilizer will help. The power heads I use are koralias 4.
Cut down on feeding,lights,and increase water flow with power heads.
My acryic tank had some hair line scratches on it when I bought it. Did yours have any. And if so do you plan on buffing them out?
Looks great. You did an awsome build putting this together. You were lucky to find a lot of equipment from connections through your local reefer...

Coppersafe works. It contains copper. Use in a quarantine tank. Only thing for me that works.
Ralphy, you got the big tank bug. Good luck. I will help you when you get it. Michael
Look pn Craigs List. You might fing a steal.
