Gyre

[Scott Muncy]

Hello everyone. I have a 72 gallon corner bowfront tank. I have struggled with dead spots with the shape of the tank. I've been researching the gyre pump and it seems to be an awesome pump but I've only seen it reviewed in rectangle or cube tanks. What are your thoughts with a corner tank that is a bowfront tank. Is the gyre what I need to get to fix my flow dead spots.

I really like the gyre but it's in a rectangle tank. Maybe 2 ice cap gyre's mounted vertically in the back would eliminate the dead spots.

Another pump to consider is the Tunze Stream 3. Placed in the corner could be nice flow.

I think if you mount it vertically in the corner it would work good for you

I really like the gyre flow, yes I have a 72 regular bowfront on have them on top, but mounting them vertically would give you a lot of flow.

Forgot to add that the biggest advantage of the Tunze is that it is the lowest maintenance pump on the market.
