Gfo needs to tumble so the particles won’t bind together. If you mix rox with gfo, you can get away with a slower rate of flow as the rox helps keep the gfo from binding together. Rox is also supposed to be hard so it shouldn’t turn to dust when mixing with gfo.
Normally you want GFO to tumblr a bit and carbon to not tumble at all as it can create dust. Fortunately, the ROX Carbon is so dense that it can tumble fine and not create much dust. I don’t even bother rinsing the ROX Carbon as hardly any dust ever comes off it. You don’t want to do this with lignite Carbon... you’ll get dust everywhere.
I need to get back on those. Been slacking.

Thanks Fudsey!BRS has a video on mixing GFO and carbon. I've been running it this way ever since I started using a reactor.
Time 5:38 for mixing instructions, 2/3 carbon to 1/3 GFO.Get the best performance from your GFO and carbon
Media reactors are designed to efficiently pump water through various filtration medias to remove contaminants. While you can use many of these medias in a simple filter bag in the sump, the reactor has the advantage that all of your tanks water volume comes in contact with the filtration media...
No posts since Saturday? Have you been abducted?
I'm a weekday poster... it's like my day job. I like to take weekends off when I can.
HOTO is definitely an eye catcher in real life. Beaming blue. My brain is filled with all kinds of useless reefing information. My wife would agree to that last statement.
Umm, you’re not allowed to take time off...we have needs!I'm a weekday poster... it's like my day job. I like to take weekends off when I can.
I AM useful honey! See!I have a couple dozen sticks/colonies I can't name so hoping you can come by and remind me what I spent my kids' inheritance on. Think how useful you would feel. Would be like a cheap (but effective) therapy session.

They do have a nice gold look to them but are so tiny it’s hard to tell exactly.
