it will work as long as it's got water from the tank flowing through it, but it would work best running in the tank since that's what it was designed for and would have less chances of having already cleaned water recirculating

Who gave this thread five stars?? For crying out loud, it's just another GW thread.

Geez people, use some discretion when you use the forum tools.
