using three reactors???

[project1004]

Just wonder if you can run three reactors... I am running bio pellet and activated carbon in two seperate reactor... I have one more reactor and wondering if there is anything elso i can put into it... I have uv, 300w heater, bio pellet, activated carbon, skimmer and return in the sump... No refugium... Any ideas or thoughts??? I heard running gfo with bio pellet is dumb idea... What others products can i put in it ^^ or should I just not use it~~~ Thanks

Na... GFO and biopellets can work fine.

Could always through some Matrix in there.

I read that gfo and bio pellet does the same thing... so it ends-up being waist... did I get that right?

Matrix is not activated carbon. It's more like live rock with a heck if a lot more surface area. I'm not a fan if the bio pellet craze. Much rather put matrix in.

I just google stuff like "bio-pellet with gfo"... I only read some saying it's useless to run both but none said it is beneficial to run both... I'm now considering to use em both ^^
thanks

So guess there is many other items I can use in reactore not just GFO/Carbon or Bio[pellet/carbon...

Possibly my next project...
