Media reactors, which is best?

[ReeferBen]

So I have a dual BRS reactor. It works ok but the MJ 1200 hardly can mix the media when its fresh and once its been a week the water hardly flows through it.

I have a smaller tank but like to run GFO and Carbon. I do have some other reactors in my basement, one is a deltec thats just a bit big. The other is a phosban reactor but it may be missing parts.

Is there a good reactor that makes it easy to get good flow, easy to change the media, and has a quiet pump?

I have a phosban reactor that is half full with gfo and carbon. I connected it to my return pump and it tumbles the media just perfect. Zero flow issues so far as long as rubber tubing doesn't get kinked.

I run a BRS single reactor with an MJ 1200. I don't think the MJ 1200 has the flow to run both (265'ish gph). Do you have one pump for each reactor?
