I started with a regular AC power head and it was putting off too much flow so after some research I decided to try out a Maxspect Jump 4K gyre mounted vertically. Does anyone have experience with this setup? Whether you do or not I’m open to suggestions on both the placement and settings. The picture is where I have it mounted on the right side. The tank is in the middle of the room so you can see through it.

I don’t know but I would move it around and see what you get in current motion and visual impacts at different locations. I would adjust the flow so that it is pushing water towards the opposite end of the tank where it’s sitting and then try it at the opposite end.
