I just received a new Gyre XF250 yesterday and I really like it. I am using it in a 150 Gallon 48 x 30 x 24 tank and the wide flow pattern is really nice. In regards to programming the manual is a little week but the video put out by CoralVue helped me a ton
I was using two MP40's prior to this and so far I must say I like the flow pattern better on the Gyre. I do miss the loss of the Apex programming for it though
You can't connect the new ones to the apex? Bummer I guess I won't get the new ones
