The reason the inlet is installed high on the bait tank is that if the pump fails or dies, the bait tank will not drain itself empty. Best use a separate drain plug or valve low on the tank to dump your water for the long paddle back. For a decent circulation, attach a 90-degree elbow inside the tank intake and point it towards the bottom of the tank.
