Anyone with Maxspect gyres XF350 here? I would need some help to figure out how to create more flow at the bottom of my tank. I have two brand new XF 350 on the same controller. They're working great I have them on pulse but the flow is not reaching the bottom of the tank underneath the gyre (tank is 400 gallons, height 28", gyres placed 2" below water line on the two ends of the tank) and some of my corals near the sandbed receive almost nothing.
I was thinking about doing a reverse flow like I did with my old gyre but can't seem to figure it out with that model
On the website they state that the "Alternating Mode an industry first which allows the Gyre to reverse the direction of its flow. This is especially useful in creating alternating current inside the aquarium. By swapping out one of the included reverse flow impeller on the gyre, an alternating gyre flow can be created with a single pump. The strength of the forward and reverse flow, as well as the flow duration can be easily set to achieve the desired effect. " Welp I don't see any included reverse flow impeller in my box.
Can anyone advise about what I could do to get a better flow and maybe alternating or complementing the two pumps?
Thank you
