Has anyone been using the Icecap WiFi controller with two gyres? I just got mine yesterday and have been trying to find the right flow. I have two 1k Gyres single bladed. I liked the random flow that the single controller gave but when I pick random flow with the WiFi its not giving me the random flow. Both pumps are at the same speed which meets in the middle of the tank and its so rough I'm sure if i kept it that way coral tissue would just tare a part.

Bump for gyre users. Maybe @Jeff@CoralVue might have some helpful thoughts

I think this can actually be deleted. I found a flow that my corals like. Sine Wave for 1min20sec. One pump is at 70% and the other is 40%.

I follow the @Nick Rose approach as well. Random wasn't quite random enough for my tastes. I created more turbulence using Square Wave (during the day) and Sine Wave (at night) Presets then adjusting the Cycle Duration to be much faster (I think the default is 10 minutes). Now I have them set at 1 minute (30 second ramp up, 30 second ramp down).
