Anyone use the jebao gyres?

Anybody use the jebao gyres? I have a 125 gallon 6ft tank that I have an mp40 on each end. I have a cheap jebao in the middle on the back wall. I want to replace it with one of the jebao gyres. But they are not clear on output flow. Hoping someone can chime in

I have the dcp-150 thing moves water might be overkill on top of your 2 mp40s though

I do. It's great. Moves a ton of water. I also have 4 MP40s in my 180 gal. peninsula. Lots of flow.

The issue I have is that I have a standard 125 gallon 6 ft reef ready tank. So it has the standard corner overflow. I have an mp40 on each end running at around 50%. This works really well for my tank. Except that it leaves a dead spot right in the middle. If I turn up the mp40s then the ends get blasted too much. I currently have a old jebao pp power head in the middle and it helps some. But was thinking a gyre turned down, in the middle would help more.

Yeah you can turn them down pretty far. if you have sps I would get the 120 or 150 if not the 90 may be enough
I have a 125 with external overflow I’m going to get another 150 as I have all sps

I have one of the crossflow wave pumps on my 90 gallon and it's the only gyre I need, and still only have it running at about 50%.

For me, the pump itself is great, but the controller can be a little finicky. Still worth it for the price tag IMO
