The 6080 is not adjustable. You would need to purchase a 6110 with the controller, but at twice the price. Or like mentioned, one of the new models that are smaller.

I am a big 6080 fan. Best stream for the money, IMO. Your placement plan would be fine, as long as it does not blow the sand around on the left bottom. Also the back left corner, pointing to the front right may work. You can play around. We helped a guy on RC, same problem and its working fine now.

Remember, although 2200gph, its a wide, diverse flow and not abusive like powerheads or pumps.

If I would have not bounced my camera of the cement floor, I would take a pic of my bubble. I just redid the tank. Although somewhat protected, its smack in the center. Remember its almost a 1 1/2 ft. square when open. I run two 6080 stream pumps and its fine.

I use to have a large colt, {not as big as yours}. I found it to like the current. Not aggitated though, as you know. I found they hate sand in the current. Mine is now in a friends tank, that has its sand stirred by some stupid blue damsels, {were gonna fix that on Sunday}. The colt hates it.
