Hooked up my Lifeguard Fluidized Bed Filter to a MJ1200 and added 550ml of NPX pellets today. Having problems with clumping. When the pellets clump, they don't tumble. Tried shaking the container and restarting the pump several times. Left it running for now & hoping the clumping stops after the pellets sit in the sw for a while.
Any suggestions? Need a bigger pump? BTW, decided to Beta test on my 210g mixed reef instead of the fowlr due to not having room for the Filter on the fowlr sump.

Did the pellets ship already then? Haven't received them yet. Really hoping the TLF/MJ1200 combo works out for me.
Can you have too much flow through the reactor? I'm thinking if you get a bigger pump they *can't* clog. But maybe they won't perform right I'm not sure.

I use a maxi 900 on my Kent Marine which is the same size as a TLF and the pellets seam to tumble perfectly. I also use a single piece of plastic bug screen on the underside of the top and bottom diffuser plates.

Got mine going on a Lifeguard Fluidized Filter Bed as well. Mine is tumbling well but I had to do a little bit of a mod.
The holes in the bottom plate were way too small for any flow, so I cut it out and replaced it with plastic mesh. I am also using an Aquaclear 802, so I have a little more flow.

Well, as expected my display tank water is cloudy after 1 day of having the pellets tumble better. The pellets didn't tumble very well for the first couple of days.
I plan to tabulate all my readings and results later in the beta testing using Excel to make it easier to see any changes in Nitrates & Phosphates.
