Phosphate remover

I bought the two little fishes phosban reactor, i think it says it does up to 150 gallons. the directions said 100-200 gph pump, i just bought an aquaclear that does 127.it says it only needs 20-30gph in the instructions and it comes with a valve to turn the flow down. I bought the smallest amount of rowaphos, but not sure if i should use it all. It said in the instructions that the minimum amount of media to put in it is 100ml should i use that much for a 26 Gall tank?

 

Sounds like your well on your way. What is your current Phosphate reading? You should see it start to go down from here. You'll know when to replace the media when you see phosphate readings come back up or more the algae growing...

 

I use Pura phoslock and it says 2 table spoons for 50 gal. I use just a little more than that. I would go with the recommended gph. You can use the 127 but add the regulator valve and adjust to just getting the tumble effect.
