Phosban Reactor ?

[GorillaReefer]

I was just wondering how long you guys run your reactors? 24/7 or just a few hours a day? By the way I'm using the PhosBan media not RowaPhos. Thanks

WHen I had mine it was going 24/7.

Do it slowly. Don't want coral to go into shock.

Ok, Thanks guys. I'm running it right now with slow flow rate.

Yup, slowly. Run 24/7 but at about 1/10th the rate that was recommended in the manual. If after several days to a week you still measure trace phosphate or just want to 'turn it up a notch' then slowly increase flow. Got my unit from Custom Aquatic for about $30 or so.

What media are you guys running? The Two Little Fishie's PhosBan media sure is touchy when it comes to flow. Dissolves to easy.

Hey scott what make reactor are u using?

 

[plankton]

Two Little Fishes. Basic unit but gets the job done. $35 from Custom Aquatic and came with 150g of PhosBand. Have some Rowaphos I'll use when the Phosband runs out.
