Nice build and nice thread! Very detailed. Your plumbing skills are next level, LOL. I like the idea of gate valves on the reactors. That will allow you to have precise flow control for both independently. I might have to borrow this idea. I run a single reactor with a carbon/gfo mix (gfo when needed) fed by a maxijet 1200 with a ball valve.

I think on my next tank setup i'm goint to run two reactors like you and plumb in gate valves to each. Will be nice to adjust the GFO flow to a more "as needed" gph.

Thanks the tank took a little longer then I expected but I got everything the way I planed it. The gate valves help so much and the cabinet on the right house my very large skimmer and all my controllers I will post a video update soon.

I been really busy but the tank is looking good. Nutrients are to low. I’m running the skimmer very dry and only at night. I think is time to get more fish
