Pros & Cons
Pros
All gyre units are pricey… however after struggling with my icecap for years… the parts were wearing down faster than i could replace them. It handles anything that can make it through the grill without issues.

If you have a peninsula tank like i have this is the powerhead for you with all the different settings options it moves a ton of water clear down to the opposite end of the tank and i have a 180g revolves around sweeping detritus in its wake and providing that rippling surface water for gas exchange and increased ph clearly value for moneycon its a magnet for algae buildup and require regular maintenance
