i am trying to figure this out and am a little confused

well the topic says it all, my old reactor pulled its own water from the feedpump (no extra feed pump)

pics would help a lot and i will be buying the stuff from home depot

would like to get it running on turkey day

I use the clear flexible tubing from Lowes and a zip tie.

Mine is exactly like rs2208, same reactor, same 1200 maxi jet, and same sump. It works for me

Is that a lot of flow for the feed through the reactor? Mine has a 1200 on it, but my has a bypass on it.
