need info to switch from PH to sea-swirl

Do you have to have a sump to use the sea-swirl set-up? I have 48"x24"x24" tank with 5 Maxi-jet PH's 1200's. They keep falling off the back glass, i guess they don't get good suction due to coralline growth? Is there something I can do to get them to stick better? Or can I use the sea-swirls even though I do not have a sump. If yes, how? Thanks!

The maxi jets do come with a plastic hanger so the can clip on the top of the tank or you can claen your back glass where you want the MJ to be and the suction cups work well when attached to clean glass.
You can run sea swirls on a closed loop exrenal pump but it takes so plumbing and work.
