Interesting placement of the Gyres. Any dead spots or weak flow areas? What kind of power settings are you using with them? My tank is fairly similar to yours and I have two Gyres as well.

I didnt realize you had 2 aswell, Im running the vertical one on forward at 20% and the horozontal one at 50% in reverse.. Flow is pretty goodould say no dead areas but it does slow down in the opposite end as the gyres, which works as i put all the lps and soft corals at that end.

Interesting. Maybe I'll give that a shot.

Currently have both horizontal, one at overflow end at about 40% short pulses, and the other end at 60% constant. Some lesser flow area still, but my tank doesn't have SPS at the moment.

ok so eventually i will want to cram more fish in here, so i need a bigger skimmer. So i got an external and tee'd off of my return, should be good with both skimmers for a 450 gallon heavy load tank. im pretty sure i dont have to worry about skimming anymore..
