Sorry, noob to Sulphur here. Where do you guys have your probe? Inside the reactor or in your sump where the effluent comes out?
in the reactor...if you look at the pictures closely you can see the probes.

great!!!!
that's a giant reactor, i have "toyed" with the idea of getting a bigger one. With flow like that and no3 free effluent, imo, you well get great results.
keep us updated....
good stuff!!! as DT no3 keeps going down, flow will need to be increased even more.
I would suggest you measure output in volume. I measure in ml so if I change flow I know. What if you get a clog in the line or pump fails 1/4 turn means nothing.
The RX has a 1/4 OD tube in and out not sure how much more than maybe 24oz/min I'll be able to put through it. I assume as long as I don't smell rotten eggs, the ORP is less important at the higher numbers.

yes, that is where i'm at, flow at max and very low ORP. i agree also watch for smell, however, ime with good flow it never happens. i think the smell comes when flow is very slow or stopped.
You said you're about 2gph (4oz/min) what's your ORP and tank NO3?

yes about 2 gph. today ORP was -367 and no3 last week was ~1.00 ppm. i'm planning to increase flow a little by removing a valve, but i can't get much more flow.
No foul smell at -367, I assume, so I shouldn't worry about how far down ORP is as long as I'm at high flow? Just read a bunch of horror stories of hydrogen sulfide contaminating the tank.
