Looking for a good bio pellet reactor.

[Carey1465]

Just as the title says, I'm looking to buy a reactor for some bio pellets and I dont want to get something cheap. I've been eyeballing the two little fishes reactor but I'm not sure if its a good buy. Does anyone have any recommendations? I don't want to spend over $200.

I have the aquamaxx - it is very well made and works great.

If you want a good BP reactor for less than $200 it will need to be used

How big is your tank?

It's a 110 gallon tank plus a 20 gallon sump/refugium.

I use Reef Octopus reactor, very well made and works awesome. No problem tumbling pellets.

Reef Dynamics bpr 135. Closer to $300 but its probably the best. I currently have one on order for my 125. After a lot of research, the choice was easy for me. LA fishguys has a good vid on them with explanation and demonstration from Jeff Macare (owner of Reef Dynamics). Its worth a watch.

If I get the octopus reactor, does it have a ball valve so I can increase or decrease the flow? Also, how often do you replenish the pellets? They dissolve correct?

I have the Cadlights bio pellets reactor, and it works PERFECT!!! Its a recirculating reactor, with a 3 way valve. Makes it easy to fine tune the reactor. And it comes with a pump built into it. No need to buy a separate pump.

Check out the video on YouTube. The pellets swirl like they're in a tornado. It's insane

Just about 90% are below 200, the only one that I believe is over 200 is the Reef Dynamic version.
