I need a decent reactor that I can run carbon in on a 28 gallon jbj aio cube
I need to treat the tank for flatworms and need something dependable to run carbon in that’ll fit in or on a 28 gallon cube
 
If you aren't going to be using it for anything but flatworm exit, I wouldn't bother with a reactor. I treated for flatworms in a 30 gallon, put the carbon in a bag in front of the wave maker. Worked just fine.

How much carbon should I use for a 30 gallon ?
 
Not quite. 1 tablespoon per 10 gallons is not recommended for pulling flatworm toxins out. Cleaning water generally, sure. Pulling out freshly released toxins that can kill your fish and coral, not so much.

You want a Lot. I ran probably three cups and traded it out every few days. While treating.
