I do want to add if you don't have a way to test Phosphates down to the hundredths, you need to get one. Otherwise you are running a phosphate reduced blindly.

Guess I need to order a Hannah, I'm trying to figure out how to get the gfo stuff from gmoney now. Between my work and kids and wife with the flu my time is next to nothing.

Working with gmoney to get the gfo and reactor.

I love the hannah phosphate checker , I use it every single day to track phosphates. You will be happy you purchased it.

I wouldn't run the full amount of GFO to begin with. Changing water parameters, even the bad things, too quickly can have negative side affects. I would start with a half of the recommended amount. And don't forget to change it out, it will release the phosphates back into the tank once it's been exhausted.
