I got two of these in the sale BRS had/has going on. I plan to run one with carbon and the other GFO. I planned to run as needed.

If I have a strong enough pump, any see any issues with daisy chaining them together?

My plan is to run the pump into carbon, have that go into gfo, then back to tank.
 
personally I don’t like the idea. You might only run GFO for a few hours a day to keep PO4 low, without bottoming out. Carbon could run much longer without depleting nutrients.
 
That did cross my mind, but if po4 got too low, I imagined just disconnecting the gfo side.

Appreciate your feedback, I'm going to think about it some more
