Any Gyre XF 230 users that would give me your opinion if you like them.Pros and Cons.Thinking about getting one on my DSA 105.
 
I have the 130, which is the same except the controller, like them very much. What are your thoughts

Trying to decide if i want to get 2 or 1.right now i am using only 1 Jebao WP 25 and the return punp for flow,i tried 2 Jebaos and it was to much flow for my tank.I have all LPS and anemones.

What size tank?
 
DSA 105 Rimless
Very nice tank, In my 72 I have two at the top of the tank to move and aerate the water and they push the water to the center. In the center I have a MP 40 two thirds down to distribute the water as the water collides in the center and pushed down, the Mp 40 catched that water and distributes the water around the bottom

If you are looking for a circular flow I would suggest two 130's, aerate on top and flow at the bottom
If you are looking for one, I would go with the 280 on one end.

Do you have any complaints about the noise?You don't think 1 230 would be enough?

My MP 40 makes more noise than the Gyre. If you were to go with one I would look at the 250.

here are my 130's in action
