Why does BRS recommend this?
All of the BRS reactors come with easy to use push connect
tubing, flow control, and a refillable cartridge. We took
easy to find components to keep things cheap while designing an
efficient easy to refill reactor for aquarium use. We
keep hearing our reactors are the easiest to refill even when
compared to others three times the price. When changing
the media is easy you are more likely to do it in a timely
fashion as well. We also recommend having an extra
refillable cartridge on hand to make changing media that much
easier.
Easy to use, setup and maintain. Perfect for utilizing GFO and
Carbon in the aquarium. No annoying thumb screws and leaky lids
like other reactors. BRS recommends a Sicce Syncra Silent
1.5 pump to operate this reactor. Sold separately or
packaged with the pump. Choose a different pump depending on
mounting height and amount of media used.
