I have a very nice Reef Dynamics bio pellet reactor I purchased in 2013 when bio pellets were all the rage. I have since stopped using them and this gorgeous piece of equipment (even has my name on a sticker by serial number) is just sitting around doing nothing. Any one have any ideas to put it to work doing something different? It's this one, I grabbed this pic off google images, but exact same reactor. Cool thing about this one is you do not need a feed pump and it's external. you just put that blue line in the water and the Eheim on the base both sucks in the water and tumbles the bio pellets.

Could turn it into a chaeto reactor.
 
True, great idea, but I don't need one. I have a sump with fuge growing chaeto. After BRS did that test series on fuges with the different light I upgraded to a kessil H380. It's freaking legit, if I accidentally leave my cabinet door open my whole house is purple at night.

edit: maybe chaeto reator and run it on a frag tank or coral qt tank.
