How is everyone running rox 0.8 in their reactors. I struggle with it because it clumps if I flow down through it And it floats if I flow up through it. It also gets wedged in the foam separators.

I'm using tlf phosban reactors.
 
You need some sponges to hold it in place. Position it between 2 sponges at the top of the reactor with up flow passing through it. You do not want carbon to tumble in reactor.
 
I use the foam sponges and I don't tumble it. It still plugs up the foam sponges and it floats does a day before it sinks. Alot floats up through the foam sponges or sneaks around the side.
 
You can cut out circles of filter floss.
