Can't offer any advice, but i know it's been discussed a lot in the past. Have you searched on the topic?

Go very slow. Start with 1/4 of what you need to run and slowly add more. Tried running them in my system but even at 1/4 of what I should be running they kept making my skimmers go nuts and overflow everywhere. Finally figured I was better off running my skimmers properly then the pellets and gave up. Others have had success with them, I admit I'm fairly impatient. Also be aware that some people had the pellets kill their corals. Unless your nitrates are fairly high (over 20) I wouldn't risk running them. Look into a better skimmer and run GFO.
