Best Biopellet Reactor for a 300gal

[nldemo]

Hey all!

I am looking to buy a biopellet reactor for my 300gal FOWLR tank. I have a sulphur reactor that worked wonders on my nitrates, but after a few months it would also get really gunked up and i'd have to replace the media. Since biopellets dissolve, problem solved.

I figured a recirculating reactor would be best, for more contact time. But is that true with biopellets? I don't see anything recirculating that is "large enough" for my tank size. But maybe it doesn't matter if it out performs the larger reactors that don't recirculate?

What are all of you with bigger tanks using? Do you like it? Hoping to buy this weekend and catch a sale price

thanks!

I can try to grab you a snapshot tomorrow, but yes - the bodies are the new G2 style (I still have the original Torq bases which still work fine).
