If you turn all 40 at the same time, does it blow out the side panel of your aquarium?

Well i have 2 on each side so i imagine it would hold the tank together. I left the masking tape on the tank for structural support.

So how far down from the top of your water are you guys placing your pumps? I see alot of complaints from people about them blowing around the sand and creating a sand storm. I run sugar sand and no such problem at all. I get a pretty nice wave in NTM with 2 MP40s in sync mode.
