Hi guys just thought I would give you a preview of my newest DIY reactor on our DRC forum, it is a Rowa phos reactor and should work like a charm, I will keep you posted on its progress. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>Jim K

Let us know how it works. I brought a phosban reactor and rowaphos ~ month ago and it is still backordered. I think I'm going to d/c the order.

Im going to tap one of my main return pumps for the reactors flow, I will let you know how it works, from what I have read LOW FLOW is recomended.

Looks nice Jim. Low flow is the ticket just turning the media over without it flying all around. I don't see any sponge in your DIY and you may think about that as the Rowa media is Very fine. and needs something to keep it in the reactor.

Tom, Thanks for the complement, I have a pond filter I was planning cutting up and wouldnt even think of using it without one (RED everywhere), I think it should hold about 300grams of Rowa, I will let you guys know how it works, I should have time to set it up this weekend.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Jim K
