Filter placement

Post by xrayjeeper83 »

As I said in another thread, I got a AC 110 for my bday and im trying to figure out where to put it on my tank.

As it stands I have a wet/dry with the intake piping on the left back corner and the return is a spray bar going across basically the hole rear of the tank. Due to how close I have the tank to the wall and the length of the spray bar I cant put the filter on the back side of the tank. I was thinking the best placement for the filter is on the right side of the tank, which wont be the best looking when you walk in but it will push all the crap towards the intake for the wet/dry. Am I on the right track, cause in my mind putting it on the lefts side will just push everything away from both intakes.

Im pretty sure I know the answer but want yalls opinions on the matter before I go reshaping the eggcrate.
