Hi guys,

I had only one gyre on my Redsea 425XL on the top left as per photo below. I was recommended by many to get another one and run two gyres so I have bought one.


just a few things anyone could help with please.
1. Where should I place both gyres?
2. Should my gyres be pointing downwards or upwards for more surface agitation?
3. Based on the setup you recommend where would the high flow , medium and lower flow areas be in my tank

2 gyres is the best, they should face each other IMO and the waves should compliment each other.

You will have to play around with the settings to find out which is best for your tank, it takes time.

Anyways, bumping the thread will hopefully get more comments from others
