I dont feel like i am getting proper flow throughout the entire tank with just 2 WAV pumps so I am adding a Gyre 250.
Any suggestions of where to place and what settings to use for the WAV pumps going forward?
 
I put one in my 180 so I could take out all the other blowers. Wow flow was awsome however in 2 weeks my sand turned brown from lack of flow. I have since added a blower in the back end of my tank to help. So far it's working. As far as settings I would say trial and error. I do love my gyre
 
I haven't tried to put mine that way just yet. The way my tank is built in it makes it kinda hard
