I also saw one mounted vertically along the side of the tank. When I get my hands one one I plan to mount one right under my overflow weird as well and do the same thing.

I was originally thinking about mounting one on the overflow directly beneath the teeth but was reading someone's opinion on reef central ,that it would be pushing leftover food /detritus etc away from the overflow instead of allowing it to go down the overflow and caught by the sock or skimmed out. I guess everything would make it through the overflow eventually though , so not sure if that would really be a concern or not.
