You can post the link to the video.

I have a Reef Dynamics biopellet reactor too. I also much prefer being able to control the effluent.

Not sure why but my iPad won't let me add a link, but it's lafishguy episode 107 and there is 2 parts. Definitely swayed my vote for a recirculating reactor. Good to hear the biochurn is another option, because Reef Dynamics is no longer in business, and his reactors are becoming hard to find. another reason I like Biopellets as a form of carbon dosing is I have my effluent line "T"ed into my skimmer intake, so hopefully some of it is removed through skimming, with other forms of carbon dosing I feel as though some of the bacteria might not be consumed by the corals, settle somewhere in the tank and reintroduce the nutrients. That being said I can't be sure how much of that bacteria is skimmed out. I can say my skimmer definitely has increased in skimate production two weeks after starting up the reactor.
