PO3 reduction

Would phosban in the media bag of a Whisper filter work? It says to use low flow so it will not tumble.

do you mean p04? if so yes a bag would work, but no-where near as effective as a reactor slowly tumbling the media.

I have a reactor, but the phosban that I have says to have a very low flow to PREVENT FROM TUMBLING as that will grind them into powder. I have a Rio 800 - do you suppose that would be slow enough?
