A video of the flow with tge Gyre i purchased from Mike. It's on the lowest setting, think. Is there enough water movement?
I just cleaned the side glass which is why you see all that crap.

Can't upload video. Any reasons why?

Mike told me that its a PITA at first but once you do it should be no problem.

The file is to big so will take a smaller videos and post later.

Not sure why you can't upload a video. Have you done it before? I see option to link to videos like youtube and what not. Just not an option to upload one (which I am still looking into)

for long term success with this pump, i have been changing out all bearings, and gaskets every 6 months....i still have one of the original 130 gyres
 
Are you ordering them through maxspect or do you have a secret spot? Mark I think you should be fine at 2 or 3 for speed I thought plus mode was cool and keeping it in the top 3 inches gave the best "gyre"

RBTA's retracted immediately cause the flow was high. Knocked over my Candy canes and hammer. I moved it to speed 5 after feeding today and will see how things react.

Have not figured that out yet. When I turn the dial the light goes to 2 or 5. So I put it at 2 which I had initially.
