new filter question..

got that 2260 going but the exit flow bar is longer than my tank is wide, so i put it at the back blowing to the front but i think its stirring up the sand a lot, should i cut it and put it cross ways to flow the length of the tank? the way it is now there is lots of turbulance at one end and none at the other.

cut it.

I cut all of mine to fit the side of the tank.

cool --i just wanted to make sure i wasnt screwing it up!

cut it perfectly and you can wedge it between the front/rear glass to hold it in place.... kinda like back up to the suction cups.
