Bio Pellets

I found they did a great job with nitrates but lacked when pulling out phosphates. Keep them tumbling and they should work well, also start with a small amount and work your way up. If they clump at all, they aren't tumbling enough.

As far as the brand, I believe the vertex ones are a good choice!

I swear by them. I am using the Vertex pellets on both of my tanks. If you know someone running them, get a couple of scoops of mature pellets to add to your new ones, it will speed up the seeding process.
