Was just wonder where to put my two Hydor 425gph powerheads the pic is of my 55 gal tank where they will be going. I do have a canister filter on the way it's just running the hob atm. Note* the canister intake will be in the very left hand corner. Where should I put these powerheads

Depends on what your trying to achieve. Where you want the movement of water there goes the powerhead.

Looks awesome either way.

Well thank you very much! It was a pain in the rear to make very time consuming but very well worth it in the end.
