Hi guys,I just want a small help , Currently I have a 120 gallon tank , dimensions 4x2x2.The problem i am facing is all the poops of the fishes are lying on the bottom(bare bottom).I have a wave maker whose flow rate is approx 1617 gallons/hr or 6000l/hr.The overflow of the tank is at 21inch from the bootom of tank.I have a 40 gallon sump too connected to the overflow for filtration.Now please tell me where should i place the wave maker at what height or at what side,so as all the poop gets towards the overflow pipe!!!
 
And yeah one more thing the whole tank is under modification,or can be said its under the process of build!!...soo here is the pic

This is not possible with an overflow.

Even though yours is bare bottom, the hardscape and structures in the tank will trap poops.

There is only so much a wavemaker can do to move water in tank.
Frontosa will not enjoy that.
