So I bumped the maxi jet for a odyssea pump @ 250 gph and they still bairly move.

How much flow should one have in this reactor?
Should they not be tossing and turning and rolling all over the place or just sitting there lifeless?

Make sure you soak the pellets well and replace the filter pad with plastic mess. I used maxijet 900 and 1200 and works well on both.
