![]() I have been running the pellets for about a year now and I swear by them. I have a large bio-load and was having trouble keeping nitrates below 20 (this with a 10% weekly water change). With the pellets, nitrates never go above 10 and I'm down to water changes every 2nd week. As Daniela stated, it is important to have the output from the pellet reactor near the intake to the skimmer.

![]() Ii started pellets a while ago and my hair algae came back with a vengance. I had other algaes as well. My corals, however, were loving it.
I pulled the pellets about 4 months ago as a desparation move and the HA has stabilized but it's not going away. Corals are alright but not as happy as with the pellets. Disclaimer: I've been in the hobby just less than a year now so there are most likely other factors related to the results I've seen. I'm starting to plan a new tank and I'm planning on trying pellets again with that.
