Which Gyre on 60 Gallon Cube

[johnny9r]

I have a 60 gallon cube, 24x24x24, and am thinking that I want to replace my 2 power heads with a single gyre. My struggle is can I get away with a 130 or do I need the 150?

the 150 would give you white water in a 60 cube . I would def go with the 130 and run it low

+1. Go with the 130. The 150 will blast the water out of the tank.

I'm using a gyre 130 on 70% and 2 rw4s on else mode in my 60 gallon sps tank. Better to use the smaller gyre and supplement with rw4s to eliminate dead spots imo

I have a 130 in my 50 breeder and at most i run it on 60%, any higher and I get a sandstorm.

130 is more than enough. Use it in a pulse mode and you should have total tank coverage.
