I am looking at getting a space invader pectinina and I was wondering where I should place it in my tank? I know they have long feelers that come out at night. Please help.

maybe just below 2. How is the flow in that spot? You can do a lot with flow patterns to prevent sweeper sting issues.

There is a power head on the back wall facing left and one on bottom right facing the glass. It a pretty dead spot for the most part.

I like to keep sweepy stuff on the bottom or a rockwork corner where i can aim the flow to push any stinging flowy bits away from anything i don't want it to fight with. That, and light/ interaction with potential things you may want to add later are going to be the most important things you will want to consider.
