It'll be fine, I've bought so many people's unwanted and used biopellets over the past 3 years it's not even funny! My reactor currently has 3 different types from 3 different people tumbling. All I do is what you did, rinse, dry and store for use later.

It's true though, I'm a world class BioPellet whore .. if you get tired of your BioPellets sell them to me!!

I have no opinion on UV as I have never run a UV on a tank before.

Hey Rich, sorry to read about your troubles the last few weeks. Let me know if you need any help restocking the tank

As for UV, I'd wait a while until your bacteria level gets back up closer to normal.

Good call Kelly, and thanks for the offer. I will be stopping by soon.

Nice to see you have the new sump running
Sorry I couldn't stay Sunday 'till the wee hours

Looks like you've got piles of room next to the skimmer for a sock tray ... lets do some more planning
