What I want to know is, what ever happened to the notion of having too much flow through a media reactor? I thought that too much flow would not allow for enough contact time for the bacteria to consume the passing nutrients?
I think that falls fro different media. The biopelets probibaly do not need the contact time like Rowa or carbon?
