Greetings all, I have a 93gallon cube running two MP40's. Currently one is dead center rear of tank and the other is right hand side 8inches from top. What is proper placement? Directly across from each other or is it as long as you have good flow? Thanks!

I would position one lower and the other higher to create different flow patterns. Im running two tunzes and it creates almost a gyre effect. As long as it allows the detritus to be moved it should work out.

Opposite of each other? So one on each side?
 
Depends on the flow you want to achieve. The manual explains the different flow patterns you can achieve. Some patterns require 2 pumps opposite each other. Other patterns are best to have them in opposite corners.

I would suggest you play around with different layouts. Keep in mind what you want to achieve and types of corals.
