Flow

I have 2 each MP10's and MP40's.
Tank size is 120, 4' long 2'h 2'd.

Any ideas how to set up for best flow????

Rock work is long and in the centre of the tank so fishes can swim all the way around the rocks.

It's on a tank by tank basis. You just have to experiment and see what works best for you.

Sure I get that part but would putting the MP 10's at the back pointed at the front work?
Or would low in the tank help better?

You might try a mp 10 and mp 40 on the back side, a 1/3 the way down and close to the corners, and point them toward the middle. I have similarly sized jebaos on pulse mode like that with another smaller tunze on one side panel pointed toward the other side with regular, continuous flow. That works in my 125 (40 x 24 x 30H).

You'll really just have to experiment.
