I have been having trouble finding the right placement and water flow to make all my coral happy, so I decided to buy an mp10. Any opinions on where to place it to start off with? Also, what is a good mode to use?

I added a picture of the tank. Its a 12 gallon nano. Its tall.
 
I'd recommend moving it 5-6" below the waterline in the middle or slightly closer to the front glass. You can position the 2nd pump in the back corner to the front middle. This will create turbulence with the changing of the vortech pump.. To give you an idea how I did mine you see below. I have moved the lower pump more to the front panel. I find that they do a good job of creating turbulent flow with the variable output from the seaswirl. Hope this helps..

Nice tank! Alright, I moved it up and closer to the center and have the back a little more towards the front now but offset a little. I will see how that works. Thank you!
