Is there any particular reactor you would recommend for 70g cube tank with hammer, and Duncan corals? I have looked and Synergy products and they look pretty good. Thoughts
 
I'm using the smaller two little fishes one, and it seems to work fine for my 180. (I've only ever used this model) Seems to me as long as water flows through the media the job gets done, so if the BRS one is cheaper do that.
 
Spectrapure dual reactor. It has individual ball valves so each chambe rcan be controlled independently of the other. This is very useful since medias like GFO and carbon have different flow requirements and different useful lives. BRS does not offer this.

I have two Phosban 150 reactors plumbed like the Spectraure simply because I already owned them and use a MJ600 powerhead to feed them and had no issues with this arrangement. If I had not already owned them the the above would have been my choice.
 
+1 on the Spectrapure units.. A little pricey for what you get but definitely work good... I also like the MRC reactors.. Always top notch construction
 
Check out the CAD. Pump is connected right under system pretty cool.
