Hi I need some help quickly 😵
After setting up my reactor today I test run before hand to check leaks and so forth ... then I added to the tank switched on the pump and was no movement on pellets so pulled the return pipe out of water in the compartment in back of tank and all of a sudden it spat out a load of pellets into main display I tried to get out what I could but there is a fair bit still on sand and under live rock I've switched off the reactor now until I get some advice what to do any help will be very helpful
 
Thanks for the reply I have turned up the flow got a few but bit concerned at ones under the rocks will it cause any problems to let them just wear them self's out as they would in reactor after few months ?
 
Thanks just looked up too they are biodegradable which is good just hope I don't have adverse affect while they breaking down .. was thinking of stripping it down to get them out hopefully may not need too
 
I did this once...it will be fine they may not do anything but they will break down and eventually go away just like they do in the reactor.
 
I have had this happen. Most got stuck to my gyre.mtje would,float by once in a while. If I grab them I did. If I couldn’t they eventually broke down and were gone.
