I'm currently running one SLW20 pump on the left side of my 40 Nuvo. I purchased a second due to concern that the right hand side of the tank was not getting sufficient flow. Noticed by continued growth of a few very small patches of cyano on the sand. My question is, what are your thoughts on placement to provide complete flow coverage? Place the other on the right side and alternate flow or move both to the back panel with either consistent flow or alternated.

I would say move one to the back panel I have one on left, right and back wall the one on the back creates very nice flow.
