So I am looking to continue to upgrade my biocube 29 tank. It is currently a polyp/lps reef tank. I am having a bit of an issue with hair algae which is not to be unexpected with a newer tank (about 3 months now) though I am also looking to the future and if I want to get into SPS.
I am a bit confused about all the reactors and their media options. I was looking at a small footprint and saw this: http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/brs-gfo-carbon-reactor-5-single.html
I know there are other types as well but dont know what to look for in each.
Basically I want an easy to use reactor that the media is easily changed and runs as needed.
Right now on my cube I have an intank media rack running purigen and chemipure elite with an aquamaxx hob-1 skimmer. I have room in my second chamber or potentially the third as well to house another pump for the reactor.
So with all that said are there pitfalls or things to keep in mind when looking at reactors. Anyone with a biocube have any first hand insights?
