Tyler,

Some of the pellets seem to be more buoyant at first and in short order fall back down.

We suggest soaking the Pellets in really warm water for a few hours before placing them in your reactor, as the pellets are being soaked give the container a shake every once and a while, this will dislodge all of the bubbles that stick to the pellets. New Pellets have some of the manufacturing dust on them which causes the bubbles to stick which in turn causes floating and clumping issues.

Hope this helps!
