XF 130 Gyre too much for a 40B?

I'm looking at replacing my 3 Koralia's with a 130 Gyre. I wanted to know if this would be fine for my 40B or if it would be to much. Or if I should just get one Mp10 for the entire tank. Thanks!
 
i have one in my 40 breeder and am very happy. i have it mounted vertically on a back corner and power is cranked half way. i had it mounted horizontally but prefer it vertically with my current rock work.
 
fwiw i also had a gyre 150 on the tank when it first came out (before the 130 was available) but it was way too much flow on any setting other then the lowest. with the 130 i am able to pulse the flow and get some wave action.

Nice! I can't wait to get mine

What mode are you running yours? I currently have mine on constant mode at 60%. I keep noticing that Pulse mode is the more popular mode.
