i've been looking through a lot of "show off your tank" posts, and have noticed numerous tanks with their heaters placed in 45 degree angles. is their some reason for this, or do you fish just hit it into this way. just a question out of curiosity...

Hi im new to the forum and it's my first post! =] Most people place there heaters slanted to get it to heat up across the tank not just vertically in one specific spot, but i may be wrong..
 
I guess they don't care and just let it settle down? Or maybe the heater is taller than the tank, so they slant it.
