[I]clear as in clear of algea (for the existing ones). and down and under water because they will shoot out water, you want them as close to the water line as you can get them, while still being submerged. if they are out of the water they'll be noisy, possibly make bubbles down in the tank with their stream of water.</em>

Now it makes sense. Thanks.

Sorry. Just a precautionary.
I need to read the rest of this to see if it is a drilled tank or has an overflow box to help more. Be back in a minute

Nope...I'm behind. Had been drinking WATER of all things! Of course I could be the designated typer, though without a proper working spell check we may still be s**t outta luck.
