I bought two NextReef reactors too, because I read some pretty bad reviews of the BRS ones on other forums.

Just thinking maybe it is siphoning out to some degree so maybe put the flow valve on the outlet inside of canister to keep the under pressure just thinking and not being able to try right now

I used to use the BRS reactors, but I never had any air problem with them.

Not a bad idea Harry but if air is getting in through say the head then it won't help
But if it is still happening in a couple hours I'll give it a shot - can't hurt to try

I do get some air in the canister when I do a change but it works it self out. Not sure how your sump is laid out but if you can move the inlet pump as far away from your drain line that would at least eliminate air entering through the pump.
