Has any one used 4 gyre with the hydro's wave controller?
I have a 300 gallon reef aquarium that I'm trying to get a better flow. I got 2 350 gyre right now but not liking the weak wave.
Looking to have 4 gyres, 2 on each side running in tandem to make a custom flow.

I run four gyres on a wave engine. What questions do you have?

How easy is it to program and use?
Where did you get the controller from?

It's fairly easy to program, no coding if that's what you're asking. Make a schedule, select pump(s) & one of 11 flow patterns. It has support to run like "run all pumps at 100% for five minutes every hour" type of thing as well.

I mostly purchased it for running all my gyres off of one power brick, and de-coupling power heads from my controller.

I bought it from CoralVue directly before it released up here back in like January 2020. Any of the stores should either be able to order it in, if not carry it as it's part of their Hydros controller line now, but can still run stand-alone.

Thanks.
Im looking to to run 2 in each side of the tank to create a tidal flow that changes every couple hours with slowing down at night.
