I have a 210 gallon tank. 7x2x2

The sump is giving a return flow (pushing 2200 gallons ish). The return and overflow are on the left side.

I was thinking to get a maxspect gyre the cloud ones. However I see so many having problems with the app to control them. I finished the video from the 52 weeks of reefing where the flow was changed to gyres and the code is run with apex.

Are there any wave makers/ power heads similar to the gyres that you have had better luck with? Also with easy programming without getting another system??

Would you only place one on the right due to the constant flow from the left? What other placements would be good ??


Have a sump with fuge. Going to be a mixed reef. Fish, rock, softies and sps. Maybe LPS down the road once I learn more on them.

I'm using a Maxspect XF330 and an IceCap Jump 2K on a Hydros WaveEngine controller. It costs a bit more that way but you do have the added benefit of the App control and it can be expanded to a larger Collective later if you decide to add more sensors or controls.

I have my Jump 2K vertical on the right and the XF330 horizontal on the left with the flow from my return split and flowing mostly towards the front

Just get the jebaos! Much cheaper and I have noticed lasts MUCH longer! I have two SCP150s on my 350Gallon tank with a closed loop and they move more than enough water around the tank.

My tanks footprint is 7ft x 3ft x 2ft.
