Looking for some help here

Ok let’s see if anyone can help me out here. My buddy just purchased a max spect Gyre controller for his xf350 pump. He originally ordered the pump first andthought it came with everything which it didn’t. So no he has the pump and controller but is unable to plug the pump onto the wall. The picture posted is the wire connected to his Gyre. He needs whatever adaptor that would plug into that which looks like a 3 prong female and the other end needs to be a plug for the outlet. I have no clue since I do not have these. Anyone with these Gyres if you can help out and let me know what exactly he needs. To get his gyre going. TYIA

Listing says "pump only", it still needs the power supply and controller.
The mesh is good if you have nems, bushings he will need eventually once they wear out.

It does state 1 power supply with cable. I would report them for false advertising and return it as the pic and description do not match.
 
That description I posted was what the kit comes with, should of specified that, my bad!

What he bought is pump, mesh and bushings only.

Yes what he bought is pump only but he thought that would work with the controller Which is the icv6. He is in need of the cable with the 3 prongs
 
He may have to sell as a spare one amd buy the complete gyre to make it work with the icv6. I think. I’m an Ecotech guy. These gyres are foreign to me. Lol

FWIW, CoralVue is actually selling new Maxpect Gyres without controllers or power supplies because they can be plugged directly into their Hydros which handles both functions for these Gyres. (CoralVue | Pumps - Maxspect - BRANDS) Note that CoralVue's prices on their site can be very misleading as the price shown is the lowest price of several items listed on any given web page.

The gyre pump controllers allow you to
connect two gyres to one controller.
So if you buy one gyre and you want to add another in the future you can buy the “ pump only”option.

They now also have a coralvue controller like bob said.
That allows you to connect 4 gyres to one controller.

At this point you have to buy another gyre with a controller to make that gyre work. Or return it and get a refund.
