I just finished cleaning my AI orbit 2 gyre, and when I placed it back in the tank, it started blowing water diagonally.

In the image above, the gyre should be blowing the water parallel with the back wall. Reversing the flow would make it blow directly at the camera. Instead, it is blowing water directly at the octospawn, which is not happy about this fact. I tried dissasembling it and putting it back together, but I don’t see how I could be assembling it wrong.

Above is a picture of the order/direction the pieces are in. You can’t see it in the picture, but if you look inside the body, there is a green ring on the left and a red one on the right.

Rotate the cages look to aim flow, its also likely that you put the propellers on the wrong side.
