    Yeah I should have done the work to pull an exact quote, thanks for chiming in on this thread boss.

    That funnel mod is easy and highly effective, I would try it out.

    I'm always so intimidated with anything mechanical......I also have a hard time transferring from picture to the real deal....on that first mod, I don't understand the small piece with holes in it....that looks to be the one that fits into the funnel....see what I mean?? :(

    My first try with BPs was with a TLF 550 reactor, I always had an issue with the reactor with media being unbalanced whether it was GFO, GAC or BPs and no amount of realigning the reactor would make a difference.

    I prefer slow tumbling and I would be concerned with no tumbling that it may produce Hydrogen Sulfide
