Hey, they are pretty good, helps to create a NLS (nutrient low system) eating up all those nasty things like nitrates.

There is a trick to using them, keeping them tubmling vigorously on top, but very very slow at the bottom of the reactor. Also exporting the water from the reactor in front of the skimmer intake. If setup properly, they do a good job.
