[charliethetuna88]

I'm thinking of switching from the brightwell products to bio pellets I have a 120 gal with a 40gal sump and a 90 gal fuge at total volume of 200 gallons of water in my system ,how much bio pellets should I use ? And also would a 2 fishes phos reactor work for the pellets

i dont think the 500ml would work for u . u might need the 1000ml. ive seen people on utube usin the phosban reactor just they remove the filter sponge.

go buy the vertech reactor

Im using the tlf with no problem... The only thing is that I only use 550ml of the pellets if you need more you might have to get a bigger reactor...

go buy the vertech reactor

Get the vertex uf15 reactor . and a 1000ml bag of np pellets and start out with 250ml wait a mounth and put the rest of the bag and see if thats good for you system if you need more put more but do it slow at first and you need a good tumble in the reactor go to you tube and you will see what tumble you will need.

So for 200 gallons of water u should use 1000ml of pellets

i have the vertex reactor uf-15 and started with 500 ml on my heavy stocked 80g, id buy the 1000 ml and start with half, then add some over next few weeks, the reactor is build like a tank and i use a mj 1200 to feed it and have it turned halfway down

u can always use the tlf 550 reactor.

I was gonna go with the phosban 550 reactor its a lot cheaper than the vetek I'm sure its not built as well but times are tight lol so has anyone how's using the bio pellets actually seen a benifit from using them
