L-shaped aquarium

[richieh]

I am currently working on a L-shaped tank and need help on how to filtrate the system. I have planned out where I will be putting the input and output (in the picture below).
My main worry is: Will this system have trouble circulating “new and clean” water into the short 6” side where the wavemaker is located?

ps. I am only able to put the input and output on the “green” colored sides (in the picture below), therefore, placing the input or output at the short 6” side is not physically doable.

Just checking as not used to inches - the long side is 7 feet long and half a foot wide?

Yup, you’re correct (214cm x 15cm). It is indeed, a weird aquarium shape.

Do you think the filtration system will have trouble circulating new water to the short side (15cm side)?

I haven’t used wavemakers but yeah, little dubious to push water that far and I’m assuming it will have to fight the spray bar a little on cross-current.

For pushing CO2 here I’ve found ordinary internal filters will only manage about 2 feet.

Shop might know though or SW people
