Phosban Reactor

[Burbs]

i currently have a TLF phosban reactor with phosban in it and i want to add another one with carbon in it. first question is can i run both off my maxijet4? 2. if i can how should i run it? from pump to phosban to carbon or the otherway around? also what carbon should i use?

Use a T and control the flow that way..Use 2 valves. You need to gently tumble the phosban with light flow but would need more flow threw the carbon..

didnt even think about doing it that way thnx for the suggestion.

recommend any brand/type of carbon to use?

I agree--but i use separate minijets on each

I use black diamond carbon--its got a good reputation

Its good to use two reactors because the carbon should be changed every two to three weeks while the phosban can go a couple of months(depending on the level of phosphates in the tank)
