    Good video, the "glitchy" edit was kind of weird though.

      Yeah they went a little overboard with the transitions

    i ordered a cheap reactor on Amazon and they accidentally sent me 2. so i started running bio balls and carbon. my cheap skimmer kicks ass now and my water is crystal clear

    Is it okay for carbon to tumble?

    We need these mini reactors in the uk. We can only get the large ones

      I can confirm. I live in the UK and I have a large one. Fnarr Fnarr.

      Yes I have the double one but u can't get the half size ones it's a shame really because I think they would do really well if they had both sizes

    Is it possible to add multiple or different Medias to one reactor? Or does each type of media have to have its own

    • @sa7el
      @sa7el 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Lot of people add zeovit with gfo or carbon with gfo. But not biopellets with gfo for example

    • @BRStv
      @BRStv  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Some medias can be mixed, but not all. A common one is to mix carbon and GFO. Usually 2 parts carbon to 1 part GFO and mix the particles up so that the carbon separates out the GFO particles.

    What is the best time frame to run the carbon reactor?? Couple hours?? All day?? Morning. Night day time??

    • @BRStv
      @BRStv  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      When running carbon in our aquariums, we'll run it 24/7

    • @tricktaylor1983
      @tricktaylor1983 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I too run it 24/7 w/o issue...

      @@BRStv Does it have similar method has RO system carbon where if you stop using carbon for some time, it will regenerate(heard it from one your video about RODI syste)

  • @artistic_spaz3724
    @artistic_spaz3724 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Are you supposed to continuously run carbon/GFO?

    • @BRStv
      @BRStv  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you're running those medias, you'll want to run the water flow through the reactor 24/7. Especially for GFO. If you turn the pump off for a prolonged period of time, the GFO media will solidify.

    The term reactor is absolutely no different to the basic premise of a nuclear reactor. Both of these reactors are just an exchange mechanism, with nuclear using the heat from a nuclear source to create steam and these reactors using specific media to create an effect for adding or removing things from the system.

    Brilliant video but the effects made it feel more like the Blair witch project....

    Once you buy your first reactor it all makes sense haha

    Please never use those special effects again. Felt like a college student just discovered the effect and decided to coat the entire video in it. Super distracting and felt very unprofessional.

    That’s why u don’t mess with large tank
    A small tank can get away with just a bag of carbon

    The “glitch” type transitions were nothing short of annoying and distracting. Can we not do that again?

      Probably be a better market if they went Europe wide, rather than just the EU block.

    This video style is annoying in several different ways.
