Refugium with Reactor question

[aqualab]

Anybody see any issues with having a Phosphate reactor tied into (would be pumping out of and back into) the refugium? Flow would be approx 140gph through the reactor.
Thanks,

That's what we setup last weekend. No adverse effects so far...

We do keep the inlet and outlets on opposite ends of the fuge area.

I have a phos reactor in the "upstream" end of the fuge and it works fine. 140gph is a little high based on what phos reactors recomend. 2 Little Fishes recomends 80gph or so.

Henry, are you saying a little high for the circ through the fuge or a little high for the reactor? I will double check that flow but I believe it is around 140 for the deltec model reactor I got. If it is 140 - is that too much for the fuge?
Thanks,
Bill
