So I’ve just got my first mp40 today this being my first tank I was after some advice as to placement I will be getting a second for the other side I was just wondering where about to place it I’ve added pics of my scape the right hand side is and planning for that to be sps dominated with the smaller mushroom rocks housing a mix

any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Nice scape!
No seriously, I really like it.

I would put one for now down low on the right hand side(if looking at the tank), but not so low it's blowing the sand around. When you get another I would put it up higher for surface agitation, and on the opposing end.

Thanks I can’t take credit I had a company take my idea and make that for me really pleased with the outcome.

So round a outs where it is in the pic below? then I can move it up when I have one on the other side

I might drop it a little bit(around where the top rock and one below it create a small crevice), and more towards the front so it's not blowing directly on the rock structure.

It's all subjective though. You'll probably move it a few more times once you start adding coral anyways.
