Good afternoon all,

I'm setting up my first biopellet reactor. I have a dedicated pump providing flow to the reactor. The output will be going into the skimmer section of my sump. Where should I install the intake? Is there an optimal location for it?

Thanks!

Evening to you. Sorry about the delay

Sounds like you have a good plan. It would be best to have the intake where it will get the cleanest water. Somewhere like after a filter sock. Basically you are trying to avoid the pump picking up anything that may clog the pump or media.
