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.

Thank-you for the info

No problem Greg, I have a couple bags marked down for you.

Did the new order show up yet? I'm excited to see if it will help take care of my waving rocks of algae. If this stuff will clean up this tank it'll clean up anything.

The pellets have arrived, they are waiting to clear the border and should be shipped out this week! I am sure they will help your algae issues!

Awesome, look forward to my order arriving. This is my last resort, before tearing down the entire tank and starting over.

All previous orders have been shipped!

Our newest shipment of Biopellets have arrived and are ready to ship for those wanting to try this newest system of nutrient reduction.

[OceanicCorals-Ian-]

Biopellets are still in stock and ready to ship! Any other feedback from all of you that are using them would be great!

[hillbillyreefer]

Got mine today, thanks guys.

I've built a really bad looking reactor out of an old skimmer for one tank, and the others are in a bag. Look forward to seeing what this stuff does for the tanks.

I'm curious.. What could the side effects be if one was to just dump a couple of 1000ml bags into their sump? Is it possible to overdose these pellets? They keep to themselves pretty much whereever you put them. Bacteria consumes them and releases mulm but I would think that the amount of pellet eating bacteria would be limited by the available nutrients (nitrates and phosphates). So, if you have more pellets than bactertia once you hit ultra low nutrients would the excess pellets just hang out until they are eventutally consumed? While not impacting your system ? Just curious and something that crossed my mind :-)
