Default has anyone tried this reactor?

thinking about it for the bio pellets, is it much different than the TLF reactor?
is there still sponges to deal with?

I thought guys were finding that the TLF were a little small if you wanted to use larger amounts of pellets.

Tell you the truth. Both reactors are the same basic design as the TLF reactor. They all use the same sponges. Just my suggest buy the TLF reactor. Soak 2.5 cups of the NP pellet before using. Then set it so the pellets tumble slowly.

All reactors are pretty much the same as it is a simple concept. That being said, the NextReef ones look to be nicely built and the mechanism for opening and closing the top looks to be a bit better then the crew on ones. That one gets my vote.
