Phosphate Reactor ?

[Sea-nut]

How many of you have one ?
How important is ?
How safe is it in a reef tank ?
What brand is yours ?
What brand of media do you use ?

I use SeaGel from Seachem. I put them in a mesh beg and place it next to the return pump in my sump. My PO4 level is almost undetectable.

I`m running a phosban 150 with iron oxide from two part solution.
Phosphates are zero now. Was getting some hair algae blooms!
Getting ready to get a Denitrator starting to get nitrates of 10-15ppm. Still have not made up my mind which one to get.
