Hi,I use TLF 550,only mod I did is to get rid of original sponges and replaced them with a sewing circular templates.Hopfully you know what I am talking about,if not I will try to post a pictures whan I get home.You can get them in any fabrics store.They work great and don't clog like sponge.

Thank you.I feed my fish different foods different days. I use frozen food,live blackworms ( my fish love them),live brine shrimp,PE mysis shrimp,sheets of nori for my tangs.I feed in the morning and the evening.Some times I feed third time in between,mostly on weekends when I am home.My fish are well fed and poop a lot ,so in turn corals get their share.My sump is very simple,I have Vertex IN-180 skimmer,TLF 550 reactor with bio pellets,bag of carbon and couple of pieces of LR.I don't use filter socks.No refugium. I will post pictures of sump this weekend.

 

[FRANKENSTIEN]

Ok perfect and what do you put in the brs reactors

 

[mark54321]

I took the BRS reactor out after a month .I did used for GFO and carbon.I don't use any GFO right now.
