Settings suggestions for my IceCap Gyre.

I'm running an IceCap Gyre in my WB 25g peninsula reef. The Gyre is mounted on the back wall and the tank will be predominantly LPS. What settings would you run it on? I currently have it cranked up to 70% and on random.

I loved mine set vertical, with a sheet of water running over the surface. Seemed to mix up the whole tank. You could see when you dumped food, you could see how the flow went across the top, down the front glass, under the rock, and back up the back glass.

I ran it in gyre mode so it reversed once in a while. I really like the design and the flow they give, but the maintenance and general longevity of the pumps leave a little to be desired.

I run the maxspect gyre on a gradual pulse to give a sine wave flow.
