Hello,
I have an Innovative Marine EXT 100, and using 2 Icecap 2k gyres, one on each end placed in the middle of the side glass, at the top. I am getting great flow around the front of my aquarium, but not really the back behind the rocks. I'm noticing this because I'm having a cyano issue, and I feel like the middle of the tank where each flow pattern meets, which then pushes straight down, gets the best flow. Everything else is kinda wavy and calm. I'm wondering where people have put their gyres on a tank like mine (4 feet long, about 2 feet wide). I was thinking of maybe trying to move 1 to the middle of the tank, side glass (or back) and make it vertical and have it go around the tank that way. Thoughts? Not sure. I don't want to start messing with this if this is something that doesn't work well.
