Finally broke down and did it
Well, I finally got tired of running phosguard and carbon in a mesh bag in my sump. I don't think it was as effective as it could have been. So I ordered two coralvue mf300b reactors from Brett at nicewrasse.com. I hooked them up tonight and am running some brs gfo and rox 0.8 carbon I had in them. Can't wait to see how this works. I think I hooked it up right. Carbon is not tumbling as directed by gfo is. Not all of it but some is. Maybe I packed it too tight. If anybody has used this stuff or these reactors please feel free to let me know how it did for you. Thanks.

Im not claiming its the right way but i usually mix my carbon and gfo together in the same reactor and then change it out once a month or so when i do a water change.
