My current setup is a 180 reef in the wall build. Unfortunately the build forced me to mount two MP 40s both on one end. The cabinet being flush up against the other end prohibits mounting an additional vortech. I find that the MP 40s do not provide enough flow to reach the far end of tank therefore I am considering adding either a Gyre 280 or a Tunze. Any comments or recommendations will be appreciated.

Reefing One Day @ A Time!!!
On the end against the wall is the back of the tank accessible? If so move or and a pump there.
I have the 280 gyre in the middle of my 240 and that thing moves a ton of water so you could if there’s room on yours put one in that corner and have it turned way way down. Just looked at mine and it’s running at 30% in the middle of my tank so I would start at about 20% if you put it on the end of your tank. Having mine in the middle creates a totally random flow as it crashes against the powerheads on the end differently all day and night.
