Which pumps for phospban 150 and BRS GFO reactors?
I'm not sure if I'm going to get the phosban 150 or the BRS reactor, but which pumps are people using for these.
Is one reactor better than the other in any important way? I am planning on running GFO on 90 gallon system. thanks |

I use a maxijet 900 on my BRS reactor and control the flow with the valve.

I use a RIO 800 on my Phosban 150 with a control valve to dial it back.

It's best to have a manifold on the return pump with a ball valve. Saves on using a separate pump.

I dial it down almost half way. This makes the GFO tubule pretty good.
