where to place powerheads in a 29 bc

im putting in two 450gph power heads in my 29 bc today and i wanted some input
from you guys as to where to place them in the tank.

I know some of you will say that is not a enough flow but, compared to what I have
in there now witch is the stock return pump and a 66 ghp (yes 66) i think this will
make a big difference.

Thanks

 

You can try placing them opposite from each other on the side glass panes, angled towards the front a lil. One can be angled towards the water surface slightly, and the other towards the bottom slightly.

 

+1 smitty. Also have your pump return tilted up towards surface. Honestly i think thats alot of flow, and i agree with you, watch your corals and make sure they open all the way

 

I think your stock pump would be in the 300gph. The 14g biocube is 186 stock. Double check, they do start out flow pretty decent

 

Sounds good guys thank you for taking the time to answer my ?

 

I had a BC29 and that sounds like too much flow. You may get a sandstorm but yes they should be at opposite ends to create turbulence.

 

Idk about the BC because it's cube but in my 29g standard I have signficantly more flow and consistently feel like I should have MORE.

I have a hydor 750, a maxijet 1200 return on my skimmer, a 250gph cheap powerhead blowing behind the rocks and a 500gph jbj oceanstream and I still want to add another jbj I think. It might be different because my tank is way longer, though.
