i ended up taking out the foam inserts from the TLF reactor and that seemed to fix the problem, the bottom foam insert was starting to get quite plugged with fine sand (god damn goby). More aggressive tumbling from top to bottom.

I just found out, I put pellets more than enough, so I took some out. I don't know it seem to be OK to me. Do you think I can re-use soaked pellets again?

Use a strainer and rinse them, then put some paper towel on a cookie sheet and lay them out on that to dry. Once dry, rebag and you can reuse at a later date.
