Where you suggest I install my Koralia 1 powerhead?

Hi!
Based on the image that shows the intake and out of my Fluval 305 canister, where do you think I should install the Koralia 1?
There is a bit of a "current" on the left side created by the fluval exhaust.

Thanks for your help.

I'm not positive about your arrows, so correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears to me in the photo the filter return is a jet
and blows toward the left (or forward) in the upper area and the intake is low on the right.

Does that sound right?
If so, then I would put the powerhead on the left side of the tank blowing along the lower back.
Putting the Koralia on the side, low and rear, should move debris (that are swept to the back by the filter return) on toward the filter intake.
You may have to move your castle forward a "skoasch" to clear the path.

Your tank looks nice, congrats!
