Reef Octopus SRO Cr300d or SRO cr5000d...

[Mshort03]

Looking for some insight on which of these two reactors to get for a very heavily stocked, almost entirely SPS 300g display. (Possible frag tank plumbed in..havent decided if thats seperate system yet) The cr3000d says its good for 315 heavy load..but I feel like my version of heavy is more than theirs..but maybe not. The cr5000d is only $100 more so should I get that? Rated 700g heavy.. I just don't want to run out of reactor..nor have issues tuning the 5000 due to the flow required through it...all over saving $100 at purchase. Anyone who has any experience to chime is in appreciated!

I’d get the bigger reactor so you could go longer between media changes. Coincidentally, there’s a guy selling a 5000d in the classifieds.
