Good GFO Reactor for 80g?

[cdw79]

Trying to choose a GFO reactor that wouldn't be overkill but have enough capacity to help with my phosphates- between .15 and .3. BRS suggests I need 1 cup of GFO for the capacity of the tank, but I've been told there has to be enough space for the GFO to tumble around in the unit itself. Just not sure where to begin, especially because I've heard some units are a pain to change so ideally I'd like to make sure I choose the right one.

Open to other solutions but so far regular MB7 dosing and cheat haven't done me much good, and neither has a replenishment of my CUC. Any recommendations either way?

Do you have a fuge?

my cheato under a tuna flora uses all my phosphates. I dose phos an feed heavy. Are you feeding your corals?

I've got a Neptune GRO down there going for 10-12 hours a day and I get no growth. Decay, if anything. Nitrates stay around 5 but it's always phosphates that give me trouble

I bought a biochurn for biopellets. Once I stopped running biopellets I started using it for gfo. Imo it's the best as you can independently controll the tumble rate of the gfo.
