Phosphate Reactor for nano tanks?

Hey I posted this on the equipment forum too. Thought you guys might have more suggestions.

Are there any phosphate reactors for nano tanks? I started looking for one and the only one I can find is good for 150 gallons, which is quite large for a 9 gal. I was surprised at how cheap they were.

Links or any help is appreciated.

I just use Purigen in my Filter.
Works good.
I got the 100mL packet...
Rated for a lot more gallons than I have.
Had it in my 5 gal... now in my 10 gal. that I upgraded to.
The hair algae and cyano have left the building.

You can buy any phos reactor & just downsize the pump if you think it's flowing too fast.

Or run gfo in a sock in sump or hob.
