Reef Octopus Reactors

I am looking into new reactors for my upgrade. Does anyone know anything about these reactors or have them running? I can seem to find any specs on them. I am looking into running biopellets and carbon.

Media reactor:

Octopus MF200 Media
Filter / Reactor, 3.5"
Chamber, 20" tall

Biopellet Reactor:

Super Reef Octopus BR110
Biopellet Reactor

no, you measure pellet reactors by how many cups of pellets you need. From there you adjust flow to get slow tumble. BRS had measurements of how many cups on their site
