Is RowaPhos a GFO????
 
Might be a stupid question but is RowaPhos Phosphate remover a type of GFO?

Everyone keeps mentioning using reactors with GFO and Carbon and I never know what the GFO is?

Yes.

Expensive GFO

Incredibly messy Gfo ;)

RowaPhos is what I use and if you buy bigger volume pails it works out to be a bit cheaper than buying just 100 ml at a time

What would be a good, cheaper GFO to use in a reactor?

BRS

Is that the reactor or the media? Where can I get it?

I previously used brs high capacity which apparently has more removing power but now use brs Gfo pellets since they don't clump like the hc did in my brs canisters. Previously used TLF reactors and hc Gfo worked great. Hc rinses clean in literally 3 sec and the reg pellets take just a bit more. Rowa has far more fines and is a nightmare to rinse.

Bulk Reef Supply is a vendor on here. I use their GFO in a TLF reactor.
