It shouldn't be an issue, from what I have read they all come out of the same factory... Different shapes depending on the seller, but the recipe and the manufacturer is the same.

Please note: I have read this in many places, but cannot prove this fact, so please also do your research.

I concur, I've read the same thing. That's why I went with the TLF NPX Biopellets -- cheaper :P

The only difference seems to be their shape, so mixing them may require you to change the flow into the reactor(+/-), to get the desired tumbling effect.

I'll check closely how they tumble in the reactor.
