You should also see the 4 second on off pulse flow surging down the tank and rolling down the front panel which gives a very strong surging return flow along the bottom. From a distance it doesn't look like the flow is doing much but when you get in closer you see the massive water movement around the acros. I made a video for you to show you what the flow looks like. I use a Maxspect XF280 and Tunze 6095 as the only flow in my 5ft x 32" x 18" SPS only display. There are plenty of people that use them and love them, and if properly placed, will give excellent flow. Not saying the maxspect does this, as they move water across a large area, so its not as apparent. There is definitely something going on there. Rated at much less flow, but i feel as though tunze under rates their pumps while most manufacturers grossly over rate their pumps. I was looking for much more variability, and ended up going with 4 tunze 6065's. And there were several spots that always received the same direction, regardless of which one was running and at what speed. I was just looking for more velocity at the ends of the tank. They also didn't move a lot of water at the far end of the tank, although admittedly this may have been how I had them aimed. I had a hard time creating the truly random flow patterns I was looking for. While they move A LOT of water for their wattage and size, it is very unidirectional. They also emitted a very unpleasant frequency (at least for me) that was continuously mildly irritating.Ģ. I hate noise, and when these changed speeds, they were very audible. I liked them a decent amount, but moved away from them for a couple of reasons.ġ. I will stickl to my powerhead in the acro tank.Thank you, it sincerely helped. On top of all of that Maxspect added new flow patterns too, like Random and Gradual Pulsing mode in addition to the traditional Constant, Pulse, and Alternating Gyre modes.Well, I guess this answers my question. If you choose not to set your own custom flow cycle, Maxspect also expertly programmed a couple of 24-hour cycles, like Lunar Tidal Cycle (LTC) or the Oceanic Gyre Cycle (OGC).

It now also lets you set a full 24-hour flow cycle without the need to connect to a third party controller. By connecting two pumps, they can run in sync, anti-sync, or a couple of other modes giving you more control over the output. The new Advanced Gyre Controller now lets you couple up to two Gyre pumps together off a single power supply. The design of the Gyre body and silent suspension mounting system keeps the entire package very low profile and super quiet.
Since the sheet of water that it produces makes a "gyre" flow pattern that is very efficient and gentle giving you more coral placement and aquascaping options. The Gyre pumps use cross flow technology to help evenly distribute the current throughout the tank without creating a single concentrated point of flow. In most cases when choosing a power head, you will look into a bulky and intrusive propeller style power head that leaves dead spots in corners and makes you limited in coral placement due to the sheer force of the flow they need to produce. Recommended for aquariums up to 800+ gallons The Gyres crossflow technology allows for a gentle, evenly distributed flow that considerably helps removes dead spots in the tank making them perfect for frag tanks, and shallow lagoon-style aquariums. With the unique flow patterns of the Gyre pumps, you do not have to worry nearly as much about positioning and aquascaping design. With the ability to connect up to multiple pumps for a sync or anti-sync relationship, customizable flow cycles, and much more! The Gyres crossflow technology allows for an evenly distributed flow that helps remove dead spots in the tank. Compatible with aquariums up to 3/4" Max Flow 5300 GPH The new family of Gyre pumps now come with an advanced controller that unleashes a whole new world of options.
