Gyre XF150 used with Ecotech MP40s

[fehenry]

I currently use 2 MP 40s in a 7 foot long 200 gallon tank and appear to have low flow issues in the center of the tank. Any suggestions on using the existing MP 40s and adding a gyre pump to the middle of the tank? I'd like to keep the MP40s since one is a battery backup but unsure how to use all 3 pumps so as not to fight welch other. Thanks

I use an mp40 and 150 on the same side both at 100% on a 4ft tank with 0 flow issues. the gyre moves a lot of water. is it possible to put the mp40s evenly on the back wall with the gyre on the side ? it's designed more for a long tank where as the mp40s I would say cover a wider area.

I would think it's okay if they "fight with each other" - better movement. Maybe swap a 40 for a 60.....
