I am looking for a small sized reactor to use gfo or carbon.
Mounted on the side of a small sump or inside the sump.
Total water volume is about 70 gallons.
Looking for maybe a complete kit with a pump included.
I have a old phosban 150, but I'm looking for a smaller size.
 
Beat me to it! Best little reactor to fit in tight spaces! I’ve been running one for over a year fully submerged at all times with no issues. Easy to change out and it simply works.
Yea i have the regular sz and it sat inside my sump. it works.
 
This is more like it for size and having the pump kit.
I would have to figure a mounting option.
My dual reactor is hung from a cross support 2x4 in my stand on the 240.

If height is a problem with the size of the 150 it might work otherwise it's a larger diameter and larger front to back.

Sorry still nothing.
Is it this one?

Weird, I even tested the link, but now its wonky.

Either way ,yes, that is the one. They work great.
 
I see several different brands of ones on BRS that have pumps mounted at the base of the tube.
Wondering anyone have used this style and how they function

I use the BRS large reactors, I did switch out the plumbing to be not that pressed in fit stuff, because I found if not perfectly placed or they get jostled around, then they leak.

But the pumps and reactors work great.
