Right now on my 65g (36 x 18 x 24) SPS dominate

I'm running one Jabeo RW-4 and I need more flow. I'm debating over getting one Gyre 130 or two Jabeo RW-4.

Right now I feel like the pro of getting a Gyre is that it'll help deal with the detritus on the sand bed.
The pros of getting the Jabeo RW-4 is that it is less expensive and I can use one powerhead to give the tank some flow behind my rock work.

Which one would you go with?
 
Gyre, I bought two jabeos last year and one of them broke within 9 months[emoji20][emoji53][emoji36]
 
so i picked up a gyre 130. i'm running it at 100% on constant and its barely picking up the detritus...

should i keep at 100% or would that be too much flow. I'm running the rw-4 also at 100%
 
In addition to my previous question, is your gyre load? In pulse mode it reminds me of someone snoring.
