I have a 75g sps tank with 2 MP40 on it running in anti sync gyre mode. They are ok although I wish the minimum flow was less so I could get better alternating flow. I can’t run the above 50% without absolutely blasting my acros. I do love not having cords but I was honestly happier with 4x Jebao and they didn’t have constant issues like these “premium” pumps. I’ve had to send in both dry sides for noise issues and now another is having issues and I’m debating options if they tell me I need a new one.

If you could have 2 pumps with wide varying flow and centralized control what would it be?

-Octopulse 4 w/ Wave Engine
-Gyre 330 or Jump 4K w/ Wave Engine
-other??
-I love tunze but can’t deal with controller hardwired to pump

I have a Nero and a mp10. Both on random mode but I like the Nero because I can adjust the min and max and the variation speed. You don’t get this with ecotech. If I could get rid of my mp10 and get another Nero I would
 
I believe I get a wider flow with the Nero as well.
 
Awesome nobody has Neros I wonder if they are coming out with new ones?
 
I run 2 MP40s on my tank same size as OP. I run 38% anti sync in lagoon mode. Seems fine for SPS ans LPS at the bottom
