Guys,
Once bio pellets are being run is there a need to still run my carbon and phos in my TLF cannisters?

Its always good to have carbon running as the bio pellets and carbon remove different things. As for phosphate removers, its not necessary to run them, and i would actually recommend stopping the phos remover as it limits the PO4 levels that the pellets need in order to work properly.

Can't see your video for some reason, it says private video...??

Ian,

I've been reading the instructions on the pellets and it does mention UV will slow down the bacteria.
So if continue running the UV the pellets will still do their thing, just more slowly....

What would you or others recommend on the UV issue.

Thanks,

Chris
