Well, maybe be vertically in the corner somewhere. From the specs, you should be able to run the 30w version which is half the size but obviously the bigger the better...

hmm. Hadn't thought of that. Wonder how that would affect flow?

I think it will be amazing, let's try it on mine once I get it and I'll let you know.
Here is the maintenance link from coral vue. http://youtu.be/gMG4VYHlM9U

- Vertical gyres are great too. I know Jake Adams is a fan 
- I always loved the article about water flow and gyre flow that he wrote years ago.
We expect our shipment to arrive on the 23rd! These things are going extremely fast so if you are on the fence, now is the time to get that order in!
Thanks to all.

Wow, these look pretty impressive. Frankly after all the excitement of the whole gyre thing I'm surprised it took this long for them to be mass produced. Anyone seen any videos of it mounted vertically? I don't think my tank could handle the horizontal, thats a lot of surface ripple.

- Keep in mind it has the controller, so you can dial in that perfect amount of flow!

There is a video from interzoo of it mounted vertically. I'm not sure the folks at J&L would appreciate me saying which site I saw it on though.
Apparently it works just as well vertically.

I'm curious as to how the gyre would work on a cube tank. I have a 30" x 30" tank. I have tried researching it bit haven't found any info.
If its looking good then it could be a Christmas treat for myself.
