That's awesome. Try feeding it. I've heard that if you feed it once it is in the location you like, it might think "hey, this is a great spot because I'm getting food here."

Here is a pic from a few minutes ago, had to go a bit of an angle because of the reflection from the window.

Looks like it is right back where it started.
I really like it in that spot, as it has always made your reef look nice. I would pull off those white PVC fittings, paint them with Krylon Fusion (from Walmart) black spray paint, let them dry 24 hours and reinstall them.

I agree with Marc. I'd also consider scraping the coralline off of the back wall and overflow. Otherwise, looking great as usual!

If you look at the FTS that will follow you can see the top of the right overflow.

Glad you got the Magnifica back in it's spot. I like the look of coralline algae on the overflow and wall. Looks more natural.

Here is the shot of the three outletts on the right that I reduced and put the lockline back on.
Here is a FTS that shows the lockline, as you can see I have not reduced the left outlet. I think it is too close to the corals to have it with that much pressure, I have loosely put in the reducers to give equal pressure for now, I just have it pointing upward away from the corals. I'm open to Ideas for this outlet, I guess I could paint this one with Krylon or put in a spray bar or something.

It looks much better with the locline. And scraping the back wall makes the coral stand out. They really pop with a nice black backdrop, but it is a real job keeping it clean. If you scrape it down once a week, it isn't so bad.
The overflow is a problem as it doesn't clean as easily. Maybe a scrubby pad would work, but until you give it a try, you won't know if you think it is worth it.

Keep in mind you are seriously strangling your pump by reducing from 1.5 inches down to 0.75 inches w/ the locline. You might leave them off temporarily, and consider ordering OM's version...forget what its called but its should be available all the way up to 1.5 inch diameter.

OM's version is the OmniFlex nozzle. It's gray in color and absolutely wonderful! I'm using them for all of my 4-way returns as well as the sump return since they're so versatile and easy to adjust the direction, which is important as corals grow out. And Nick's right, it's available in 1" and 1.5".
