Bass trap positioning

I have built 6 2x4 bass traps. That obviously wont be enough to trap 4 entire corners. so i'm planning to put one in each corner leaving 2.
My question is this.
Where is the best height for the corner traps, on the floor, in the middle or up next to the ceiling?
Also where would you place the remaining traps?

Bass builds up in all corners so it really is not as critical. Though for the front corners I like to put them about half way up (assuming a 8' ceiling).
