I purchased the reactor in Oct/2012 and took Biopellets off my system at the end of Dec. So, barely used for 2 months. I've gone through 3 reactors while running BP and this is the best one. Takes little to no flow at all to tumble. Besides being slightly dusty, the reactor is in very good shape. I have not given it a vinegar bath, but cleaned it in RO water. I don't think it needs it, but you can as precaution if you want. Asking price is $100 shipping included. Also have 250ml of BP left I can throw in for free if wanted.

I'm new to the reactor scene... What did you run in it?

Only biopellets....

For those who have missed the fine print at the bottom of the photo, the reactor model is oct-br70.

So this would be the equivalent of running something like a BRS Carbon and GFO reactor?

Leaning towards your RO, just trying to understand if they are similar in nature.

I can't answer that for you, I'd advise doing a little research on biopellets.

Biopellots are a form of solid carbon dosing (like liquid carbon dosing; vodka, sugar, vinegar). So not necessarily the same but they have similar effects. Research would help before putting biopellets online.
