I'm thinking about getting a BRS media reactor either in dual. or single running both GFO and carbon.
Now, for a 40g breeder, would it be better if I ran one single with GFO on the bottom separated by the filter thingy and carbon on top, or would it be better to have the dual reactor and have each in it's own separate container?
Also, do I run carbon 24/7?
GFO 24/7?
I have read mixed opinions online but I trust in the opinions of members on here I know over the opinions of random people on random other sites.
Here is what I was thinking:
BRS GFO & Carbon Reactor Deluxe: http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/brs-gfo-carbon-reactor-deluxe.html
BRS Bulk Premium ROX 0.8 Aquarium Carbon: http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/brs-bulk-premium-rox-0-8-aquarium-carbon.html
BRS Bulk GFO Granular Ferric Oxide: http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/brs-bulk-gfo-granular-ferric-oxide.html
Do I have the right idea?
Or maybe two separate reactors ran off one pump with a Y-Fitting and ball valves? --shrugs--
And what type of pump(s) should be used?
