Phosphate reactor ???

I am tired of my tank looking like a bed of spinach and my algea blenny being the size of a tennis ball. I am looking to add a phosphate reactor - what brand and what pump is recommended?

ive ran a reactor from day 1 and i have been in the hobby about 5 months and i have never had a algea bloom or any of that, by looking at mine i dont think a the model makes much of a difference just what you put inside and replace every 2 months like the directions say, i see some of these tanks on line and they look terrible, good luck
