ok i made a phosban reactor, im using a small 304, not sure of the brand name, power head.. for some reason, when i slow the flow on the output (it should be a drip? correct?), my reactor stops filing up and just kinda drips down the side, which from what i read, will exhaust my media quickly. Should i fill the reactor up first(prime it?)? Im sure this is not working correctly and im looking for some help. thanks

Are you talking about fluval 304. If so how can you see the media inside to make sure it is fluidizing properly?

lol, no , im refering to a small powerhead. And yes i can see inside that it IS NOT fluidizing. any ideas? Should the reactor be primed first?
