How did you rinse it?

You’re supposed to discard the water until it runs clear (outlet tube in a bucket.)

You don’t want the GFO tumbling to hard it escapes the reactor.

When I used rowa phos, when I started the reactor, I would aim the tube into a bucket for a minute until the water runs clear. When it runs clear then install the tube on the tank.

I used a bucket with RO and turned the handle to off so the particles could escape. I did that a few times and as soon as I put in the tank the return bump shot some out in my DT
