    I run Rowaphos in a phosban reactor (reactor is $29.99 at drs foster and smith if you want to save some coin) and it works very well. I did alot of research on media, and found that Rowaphos and BRS High Capacity has consistent good reviews.

    What does BRS stand for? I could not find it advertised anywhere.

    What pump did you buy to go with the TLF reactor?

    easiest thing to do is make a T valve off your return pump with a ball valve on the pvc line, that way you can control it and no need for a second pump.. you probably are not running your return pump at full capacity anyways (or at least i dont because it leaves room for getting bigger tank without having to replace everything) so the T off to use the TLF reactor off the pump wont make that much of a big deal, just turn up the capacity of the pump a little bit.

    I just got the TLF reactor for mine and seems to be working great so far

    You can get a GFO reactor at BRS for $70 with the pump.

    Sure here you go Standard BRS reactor with or without pump BRS GFO and Carbon Reactor - English

    And there Deluxe model with or without pump Deluxe BRS GFO and Carbon Reactor - English

    I personally have two of there deluxe models one running carbon and the other running GFO. I like them better than the standard because of the vaccum break button. They are running like champs. Oh and they were only $10 bucks more and if you are a preffered customer they are cheaper.
