It's best to put it after a filter if possible so it goesn't get gunked up. You also have to consider flow rates. If nothing else you could just put a powerhead with a sponge filter on it and have it...

On a reef, if feeding living cultures, I'd probably turn it off for half a day. If adding new fish, or if anything stressful happens,...
