I made my own reactor for both carbon and GFO by converting old RO in series canisters. You can see this on page 2 of my journal (link below). These are very similar to what BRS sells. Very simple to unscrew a canister and refill the inside container (or remix), and clean the sponge filters without any carbon or GFO residue escaping into my tank. And it is fed by just a T off my return pump line, so no extra pump required. Works very well, and totally problem free. And dead simple...

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.
