Yeah I'm going to do the manifold in my new build for sure. But I also have 2 Reactors hooked up to my FOWLR, so I think i'm going to do a manifold for that one too. I'll just have to do some quick re-plumbing.
That being said, does GFO have to tumble?? And faster or slower flow through the carbon reactor? I use the Kent Reef Carbon, so it's bigger pellets. Right now it's got enough flow through it to lift it about 3/4" off the bottom of the reactor.
