From what I can gather you:

-Use an MJ1200
-Remove the bottom plate
-Remove BOTH pieces of foam
-Run full flow

My plan (since I have just ~35 gal of water volume) is to run around half a litre of pellets with this setup in the hopes that it'll churn nicely.
To get the TLF 150 reactor to work with the biopellets this is what i would do,
-remove the foams
-keep the top and bottom plate in
-mesh mod both plates and add the pellets in
-Get a MJ1200
-TLF ballvalve 1/2" on the input of the reactor (this allows you to fine tune the tumble to your liking) i run mine on full blast.

for a 35g tank i would just use 125mls worth of biopellets but you can go up to 250mls if you want.

That is what i do with my biopellet setup using TLF150 and it tumbles nicely. heres a video of it.
