Hey guy/gals. Looking for some suggestions.

I have an Angel dominant 220g. Just standard 6’ dimensions.

Currently running 2x Jump 4K’s at 100%. Flow coming out is lacking at best. My Male Scribbled can sit there and pick at the pump with no issues/push back.

Wanna stick with a gyre style pump. Any suggestions for upgrades?
 
I run a pair of Red Sea ReefWave45's as my primary gyres (sides of the tank, facing in) and a second set of Maxspect XF330s as secondary gyres (on either side of the overflow, facing forward) on my 160-gallon display. The ReefWave45s run @30-60% (max) in random mode with the XF330s set to a fixed 20%.
 
I have reefwaves 45 on back wall of 255gallon @100% random mode and 2 mp40 on back wall at 90% random. It's pretty good flow but might put tunze on one end for lateral flow.

The gyree are great for lifting detritus
