I just ordered a recirculating biopellet reactor. I will be running about 1/2 liter of AIO biopellets in this reactor. I also have a bubble king skimmer. I'm not sure of the optimal way to setup the biopellet reactor. Ok to just let the reactor output run into the sump? Should it be attached to the skimmer (if so just output or both output and input)?

Thanks for suggestions.

Direct the output near the intake of the skimmer somehow. I have a Reef Dynamics BP reactor, and they give you semi flexible push fit tubing. I heated it up over my stove and bent it into shape, and then fed it through a magnetic probe holder to direct the output of the BP reactor into the intake of the skimmer.
