I just got the dual version for GFO and carbon and thus far agree it is great. Seems like a simple yet great idea. Along with a maxi jet 1200 about the same price as two phosban reactors but seems better built.

This is good to here, Next week I'm ordering there dual unit from them, as well as other things. From what I understand due to my size tank I'm going to need the dual unit. I'm going with the pellet sized GFO from them. From my research I find that this unit is the best due to it has a ball valve to control the flow. That helps keep from crushing up the GFO yet keep it tumbling. I can't wait to get it either, like a child

Stupid for a tank your size I think the duel unit will work much better then any of the smaller reactors out there.

Well with 2-3 grams per gallon to start with, that's almost 2lbs. I don't know how many LBS one unit holds, so I thought I'd better go with the daul unit rather than not & find out the one unit is too small. I'd need to start with 907 grams @ 3 grams per gallon. I'll back it down and start with 2 grams per gallon, but want to be able to step it up as time goes to the right amount.
