Media reactors.

[1bigstud]

I've recently increased the bio load in my tank. As such my nitrate and phosphate levels have gone up a bit. I can keep them in check with dilligence and water changes. However I will also be adding media reactors.
My tank is a 75 gallon reef.
33 gallon sump. Becket skimmer (great strong skimmer).
I was thinking of using bio pellets and phos ban, any other ideas, and suggestions where to aquire this stuff?

Check out Siporax. I bought some, but haven't put it to use yet since the nutrients are too low in my tank.

I guess it depends on how aggressively you need to address the problem. What are your no3 and po4 levels at?

Phosphates are fairly low and nitrates are at 20ppm

Where did you get your Siporax from

What is "fairly low" in a numerical value? What type of corals are you keeping?

siporax was around years ago and it seems is making a comeback.
I would also like to know the name of the vendor and if you remember the price. I would think that shipping would be a killer.
Thanks

eBay vendor "wttomy1". I ordered 2 liters of Siporax and it was $52 with shipping and exchange back in October.
