Like Ekia said .. it is a Fludized Reactor.

This is an optional item to your marine equipment where you can place your chemical filtration media like Rowa, Chemi-Pure, Phos-Ban, Silicate Remover, etc inside the cannister.

Water is fed thru the cannister via a small pump having low flowrate to provide slow flow through the media for the ultimate efficiency of the media.

However, you still can place it in the sump (like I do) in the return department without this FR but must ensure water is constantly flowing thru the media ie not soaking in the water.

Obviously sure got protection otherwise the water will leaks out mah ...

Here is the pic of the transparent hose connected to the outlet at one end and the other end using the compatible hosing size of 5/8".

Will take readings of the Phosphate level this weekend before placing the Rowa in the Reactor.

bought mine today.. kenny advised 2 do some mod 2 it. will post pics in my gallery over the next 2 days.
still dun know how 2 upload pic here..

Great ... so we can share ideas together.

told u already.. mai tu liao

Finally, I managed to find a small empty bottle of Chemi-Pure and I drilled the center hole of the same diameter of the FR inlet plastic pipe in addition to all holes.

Pics show the mod cap (1" thick) with holes drilled and the test kit used together with Rowa.

Bottom pic shows the mod inside the FR ...

This pic shows the completed setup with Rowa inside the FR and the water is pump from a Eheim Compact 600 at its lowest level.

IMO, it will still works without the mod cap placing at the bottom of the Reactor but to what efficiency level is everyone guess. Since as suggested by Bio-Ocean to have the mod, the Reactor should works at its optinium efficiency.

Prior to applying some juice to the Reactor, the tank was left without any phosphate media for about 10 days with the same feed timings, number of feeds and dosing of phytophlankton remain unchanged.

This is to ensure the least parameters changes to gauge how how efficient the Reactor with Rowa would be.

The phosphate level measured is at 1.0 today at about 8:30pm and will check again tomoro same timing.

Now we just have to wait ...... Stay tuned.

phosphate level at 1.0mg/l?? Just 10 days without any phosphate removal and it climbed so high? wow!!

Let me guess... 24hrs later.. it will be... 0.2mg/l? hehe
