Looking into RO/DI systems, am I on the right track?

I have the BRS dual reactor. The GFO and Carbon tumble at different rates, I don't think you would be able to combine them in one reactor and have them be effective. I do not have biopellets so can not offer any advice. If I were you, I'd set up the GFO and Carbon and see how that works for you rather than buying a bunch of equipment you may not use depending on what you are trying to achieve with your tank. I like mine and it made a noticable difference almost immediately.

They actually make a dual GFO and Carbon reactor in one canister. Thats why I was considering getting the Dual chamber reactor, and putting Biopellets in one chamber and GFO&Carbon in the other chamber. Does anyone else do this?

I also have the gfo/carbon reactors from BRS. They rock. I have one seperate reactor for each. It's not as effective to combine both carbon and gfo in one reactor. I don't use bio pellets either so can't comment on that.
