I would daisy chain one of the Phosban reactors to the new bigger reactor. Keep them separate and so you can change out the carbon monthly and the GFO every 3 months or so.

Well thanks guys! Looks like I'll have to buy another reactor to match the new one.
Change GFO every 2-3 months? I change both of them at the same time which is monthly, just a schedule i've put myself on. I've had a Hanna Phosphate checker since September, it's still in the box. I guess it's time I should start using it.

I'd recommend the spectra pure reactor, as it's a dual,but the reactors are fed separately with independent flow controls. Allows you to dual in the flue just right for each medium

As per my build thread, I run a pretty simple solution, just a converted old RO canister system. I control the flow with a ball valve off a T from my return pump. Works great.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

Good idea.
And that pic of tank in your kitchen looks so nice
