Will bio pellets have the same effect? Modifying my reactor and running pellets would be a lot less maintenance for me. What are some thoughts

Two clowns a tang and angle in a 150gal fed every other day is to much bio load?
Biopellets won't keep phosphates low on their own. This is due to something called the Redfield Ratio. Basically it breaks down to that nitrate reducing bacteria need phosphate and phosphate reducing bacteria need nitrate. The nitrate reducing bacteria work much faster so eventually as the reactor becomes mature the phosphates will creep back up whilst the nitrates stay low. Almost all biopellet set ups require some form of phosphate removal, GFO is the easiest and most commonly used choice.
While I do respect the above poster the fact is that it has been proven in tests over the past 4 years that the new aio biopellets do in fact lower phos as well as nitrates. Also many spectacular tanks run on just these.

There's also one of the most beautiful tanks I've seen an sps dominated tank using only aio pellets no gfo.
The proofs there people are always suspicious of new products a and I get that but with more than just a few tanks running the new biopellets and some doing very well. I'd say these do work.
