Bringing back my old thread as I am finally ready to get this resolved. I just made another thread about dosing lanthanum. Can you tell I am a bit nervous???

The picture above making a Lanthanum reactor looks interesting. I have everything here at the house to accomplish this. I have a NIB 20" cartridge 3 stage filter system that I can run 10/5/1 micron filters in and then feed that to the skimmer. Would feed with a small return pump, maybe 100GPH, T in a feed line for the lanthanum with check valve and dump that into the input of my skimmer.

I like this idea as it seems much easier and cheaper to find small micron filter cartridges in bulk and not deal with socks. Plus I have 10/5 on the shelf already.

This seem viable?
 
Seems like a fine thing to try.

I have never use lanthanum or socks, but when socks clog they just overflow in many set ups. What happens if your filters clog? May sure that does not pop a hose loose and cause a flood. lol.
