I wonder if you could create an acrylic panel in the back left corner that hangs on the tank at a 45 degree angle. Then you could mount the wavebox with the magnets, and let the wave flow toward the front panel and bounce off the glass toward the rear right corner.

Not seeing it in the front corner would be my goal, with such a beautiful tank.

Btw, have you read that build thread in the DIY forum where the closed loop pump uses a controller to make it 3-phase? He's creating tons of flow with a maximum of 80w. It cost him roughly $1000 to make the pump work like that, but the payoff in low wattage power consumption should pay off if the pump lasts for a few years.
