Hey Ian, got a question for you. As you know, I received 1/2 my order of 1000ml of pellets. My question is: my tank and sump are aprox. 250 gallons which requires about 1000ml of pellets. Should I start with the 500ml, or wait until the other 500ml arrives? (I'll be running them in a Two Little Fishies reactor.)

Actually starting with the 500ml would be highly recommended, just like Zeo you want to start slow, this would be a great opportunity to do so, let me know how it goes!

The other pellets will be in later this week!

Thanks for your patience!

Ian

The most recent shipment arriving this Monday or Tuesday is already pre sold, be sure to place your order to get on the list for the next order arriving in about 8-10 days.

I'm contemplating using this product. How many pellets would I need for a system that has about 400g of total water volume. Thanks Laurie

Good question, I would probably start with about 1000-1500ml of Pellets, you would also need to run a larger reactor for this volume of pellets. From all of the reading I have been doing it has become clear that it is pretty tough to overdose these pellets, supposedly they have a very large safety margin.

You would still want to start slow as to not shock your system. Our Nextreef MR1 XL would be a great reactor, also allowing room for expansion.
