I've been using this Cheato Reactor from Poseidon Reef Systems for a few months now. I've renamed it the pickle jar reactor - but despite is form, it's function is awesome and simple to set up. I found it to be effective in controlling phosphates on my 230g tank so I can't complain. Additional it's about 1/3rd the price compared to other reactors while holding more but doesn't come with fancy red lights (insert syfi noises). If you're considering this route for filtration I would recommend for sure!

I started with a 3 day photoperiod of 8 hours and dialed it in as needed. Currently at 4 days and 12 hours. (controlled via apex) My code is below:
Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 00:00 to 12:00 Then ON
If Tmp > 90.0 Then OFF
Min Time 001:00 Then OFF
If DoW -M-W--S Then OFF (each dash is the day it will run, its opposite how you read it)


 
Thinking about getting one of these for a 20g nano.
