BIo-Pellet Reactor

[dustinw]

I currently have a bio-pellet reactor by reef dynamics. My question is i also run a GFO reactor, Do you think i need both or the bio-pellet reactor will be fine and i don't need to run GFO??

Standard bio-pellet aid some with phosphate removal, but if you're looking to remove GFO all together I think you will notice it might not be the answer. I don't run standard GFO but, I do run all-in-one bio-pellets and have had great results as it has GFO mixed in.

Thank you for the info.

My Bio-Pellet reacter removes Nitrates prety fast as compaired to the Phosphates seems like the nature of the beast so I don't think I would remove the GFO all together maybe just turn down the flow on your GFO reacter to match the Nitrate depleation is what I do JMO...

I was wondering this too. It seems that people that use biopellets typically don't run GFO.

I guess it really depends on each reefers system,the way and amount that I feed the reacter keeps up with the Nitrates but is not equally keeping up with the Phosphates is why I also run, GFO to keep the N03 at .02 and the P04 at .05 but thats just my system,everyones is different IMO......:typing:
