phosphate reactor

Any opinions on which reactor I should choose. The options I looked at are: Two little fishies Phosban, NextReef(ones on ebay) or magnavore simplicity chemical reactor? I read many posts with tlf reactor but seems like some have problems with them.

Or should i just leave it in the media sock exiting my protein skimmer and save the money.

Tank is a 125g with 150pound LR and 1.5- 2" sand

I have used the TLF reactors for both Carbon and GFO and have never had any issues with them. It's inexpensive, very easy to setup and maintain, and made reasonably well. Some of the rubber connections can feel a bit loose, but i've never (knock on tempered glass) had any of them leak.

They do exactly what they are supposed to and for a great price..... honestly I couldnt expect much better.
