PhosBan Reactor 550

Aquarium filter media reactor for enhanced chemical filtrationUp-flow principle maximizes efficient use of chemical filter mediaOptimize chemical filtration to improve aquarium water qualityThe PhosBan Reactor maximizes efficient use of chemical filter media. Up-flow principle pushes water from the bottom upward through the dispersion plate to gently fluidize chemical filter media. Even distribution of aquarium water through the PhosBan Reactor increases media contact for optimized use of PhosBan or other chemical filter media. Includes barbed hose connections for 1/2" ID tubing and ball valve to fine tune flow rate. Appropriate size pump, tubing, and media required (not included). Multiple reactors may be used for larger aquariums. NEW larger capacity PhosBan Reactor 550 now available for use with aquariums up to 600 gallons The pump should have 100-200 gph (380-760 l/hr) capacity, although the flow must be reduced using the supplied ball valve.

Highly porous, super adsorbent, ferric oxide hydroxide-based media effectively binds large amounts of phosphate, organic compounds, and other pollutants. Won't leach pollutants, even when fully saturated.
