MP10 Dryside wire orientation

[Kavorka]

Hello All

I have my first tank (Waterbox 35.2) and got an MP10 for circulation. The reviews are great and I really liked how all wires were outside of the tank.

When I installed it, the instructions say that the lettering on the dryside should be readable which would mean the wire would come out the top. I currently have it set up with the wire coming form the bottom of the dry side which means that the lettering is upside down.

I havent noticed any issue with performance. Do you know if this will effect anything. I don't see how it would but then again, i don't know why the instructions would say to put it one was vice another.

Also, the tank will be mostly softies and some LPS. do you think the MP10 coupled with the return pump is enough flow? Is there an easy way to determine dead spots (sorry but new to this)

thanks all

So if the wet side falls off or you pull it off the dry side doesn't go crashing down.

I think you're fine to place the dryside whatever orientation works best.
