Flow Issue- Help!

[fishnugget1]

I have a 66 wide by 30 tall by 22 deep tank.

SPS dominant. Have 2 Tunze 6095. I feel my flow is poor. Any suggestions on how to upgrade flow? More powerful Tunze? Gyre?

My Tunze's are in the corners on back glass. Using a Vectra M1 pump at 60% with dual head spout.

Any Ideas?

I’m guessing you already know the answer, but a gyre will push a surface wave across the width of the tank. Along with proper positioning of your existing Tunze pumps and your dual-head return nozzles, you’ll then have optimal flow.

Now let’s see if your similar thread in Hardware will start up the Maxspect vs IceCap vs Jebao discussion. :)

There are lots of options! Lots of people are going to the gyre pumps I have mp40s you could also put random flow generators on the outlet nozzles have that thing rocking and rolling !

I have 4 wave makers on my 72" tank. 1 in either corner, and 2 next to each twin overflow, each pointing across the tank at an angle. The 3 2100 eflux pumps are so powerful, they are at 30-40 percent. The other one is also turned down to 50 or 60 percent. Only place I don't have flow is bottom corners as the overflows block flow.

Turn yours up or add 1 or 2 more. Don't need expensive ones to get good flow
