Phosban 150 reactor?


What pump do those of you that have a Phosban reactor 150 use to feed water to it?

Telly gave great choices. The other one I would recommend is the Eheim compact 300.

I run my phosban reactor, calcium reactor, and frag tank off my return pump. Really cuts down on the number of pumps needed and less maintanance

Just put a ball valve before it to control the flow and you want the media to be just barely bubbling at the surface.
