So I have been away from the hobby for 8 years and am finally stable in my living domicile where I can have a tank again. I am putting up a 30Biocube. I have amini skimmer and mini reactor. stock lights. +/- chiller (well controlled room) and ato/doser. I do not have any circulation pumps anymore. I had the koralia mini and MP 10. Was looking to try somehting new since I am cure tech ahs advanced. I saw the aquaillumination nero 3 pumps that looked good but cant find them anywhere in stock. Anyone know why? any recommendations on new pumps? I was also wondering if you could put a maxspect gyre vertically to use. thanks. looking forward to getting back into it.

btw- plan is for missed tank mostly a few fish, maybe anemone, few softies (love my torches and duncans), maybe 2 or 3 easy sps

look forward to hearing from you guys. I had great memories of the help in the past.

"out of stock" item is common problem in all industry these days due to supply chain issues... I haven't been able to buy my favorite pre-cooked Trader Joe bacon in months!!!
Yes the gyre can be positioned vertically.
