I have one Kent Marine reactor on mine, i have a 92 gallon...you could get two of them and run them for your tank! I am happy with what ive seen so far with mine!

I run 2 Two Little Fishie's Phosban reactors.. work fine for me.

Like Fusch13 said, I'd definately use 2 of them whatever you get.

If your looking for something thats really expensive:

Then again, it is rather large compared to a Phosban reactor. Probably about 8" diameter with a 20" effective height.. Compared to a Phosban reactor which is probably 3" diameter and 12" height.

Edit- People also use these reactors in a fashion similar to a calcium reactor.. They run water through it to dissolve a substrate/media, apparantly capable of making water with 80 dKH.
