For Wavemakers, (NERO Knock-offs) I use them both on my Larger 108 and 20 Nano... I use two Nero Like Pumps and One Gyre and customized to my liking...And they are wifi...really budget-friendly. Good Luck with your upgrade.

I had them little over a month now. I hadn't placed my reviews on Amazon yet. I even purchased a pair for my larger system (Temp. installed them while my Ecotech MP 40s is currently in for service) and I am impressed; once the day light is on, I will take a video of them on the larger system.

You use the gyre on your nano? I’m looking for a new option for my IM 25 lagoon.

I did for like 2 days...but that "$hy! is too strong, so I took it down and went with the Neo-knock OFF 3 and 5 and modulating between using the 3 and 5 (probably going to stay with just 2 NERO Knock Off 3's)

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
