I got one of these for a steal, and have had off an on issues with phosphates. the issue I have is the amount of material to place inside it.
I got it to run a limited amount of carbon as a supplement and ferric oxide. So I picked up Chemi-Pure Elite which is 11.74 oz. The directions says to put in 150g to 200g. When I look at the chemipure it's 333gram. So Clearly I need to cut it down. The issue is this is just a tiny amount compared to the large size of the reactor, and phosban would be the same.
What gives? I guess I am not understanding how to load this properly, do I push the sponge all the way down to hold it in place or do I let it free float in the chamber? The directions are exactly clear on this.
