Gyre in 4 ft tank 120g

Anyone running a 130? Would you rather go for a 150 instead? Also what other pump do you use in combination?

I have 4ft 120 I run a gyre 150 and an mp40 both around 80-90% on the same side right next to each other.

do you have detritus accumulation anywhere in the tank? I like the idea on the same side so the other side will look cleaner.

4 footer here. I placed a 130 on each end. Alternating via a wavemaker.

I use a mp40 and a gyre 150 on my 75 gal. So, I wouldn't get the small one personally
