I have a 29gal biocube, approx 11 months old now. 6 small fish, approx 50+ types of corals in it from LPS SPS Polyps and a gorgonian. I have a small clean up crew that consists of one dwarf hermit, one emerald crab, a huge turbo, one Nassarius Snail, and two Trochus Snails.

Current filtration is using the intank media baskets with floss, chemi-pure, and purigen. I dose daily (7ml) reef fusion 1 & 2 and twice weekly for mg and reef fuel. Ball of chaeto in the fuge.

I see alot of folks running different reactors, mostly on larger systems but was curious if I would benefit from it. Keep in mind I know nothing of reactors.
 
Should also add I have the aquamaxx HOB 1 skimmer
