Nikon187, could you show some pictures of your tank to see how it looks?
beside a pump to pull and shoot out water you will need a Ocean Motion this will close and open the jets of differences times. When I have my closed loop I had the version 3 there are 4 jets 1 and 3 would open 2 and 4 be close and vice versa. This way water not constantly shoot out in same spot all the time
