    Hey there... So as another approach to getting rid of Algae I am thinking of adding a phosban reactor.... the problem I have is that my sump that already is short on room between the water pump and the skimmer (I have a 75 gallon tank so a small sump)

    Anyone know of a hang on reactor that is good?

    This is what I just put on my 120. I hangs on the side of the sump with a small pump going in the sump.

    As RemickJ did, I also hung the phos reactor on the side of my sump with a Maxijet 600 pump going in the sump. Works very well!

    Yeah, the nice thing about the phosban reactor is that you can hang it either off the sump, or even the DT if you are really short of room.
