best phosban reactor?

[ezcompany]

seems like the kent one sucks, so i'm deciding between the two little fishies and the via aqua poly reactor

are there any other brands out there for me to consider? the via aqua is the cheapest because it includes the pump.

get the schuran if you're a baller.

$$$?

seems like all the cheaper ones have been leaking? i checked out the reactors for my carbon needs and didn't know what to go with either... i think from what i have heard, the 2fishies one is the best over all... i have yet to figure out how to incorperate my carbon...

presicion marine has a nice reactor, but doesn't seem to have alot of reviews... may be some one can tell us about that particular one also?

i use 2 of the two little fishies ones on my tank and haven't had a problem yet. i zip tied the little rubber fittings at the top and haven't experienced any leaking after 2 months.

i heard shane had to take down his tank because his 2 little fishies leaked while he wasn't there and practically drained his tank on his carpet, but the zip tie is a good idea, i don't even know why i got metal clamps for my chiller connections

I wouldn't trust any of them externally. I use them inside my sump, so internally.

I use one of the Via Aqua Poly's. It seems to work just fine - I really have nothing to compare it with though, I really don't know why I opted for it rather than the Two Little Fishise. It does not leak or anything like that, but as the previous poster advised, I run mine in my sump.
Good luck

I agree. I run my TLF in the sump. The reactor leaks a little.

How about a Deltec Fluidized Reactor? I have a FR509 on my tank, yes it's in sump but it doesn't leak. I just don't have the room outside.

yeah but $210???

+1

heck, I do know if my kent leaks or not, I don't think it does but it is in the sump

How about Sunlight Supply Phosphate Reactor? I've seen it selling at OC Aquatic.

"2 little fishies" is the one to go with i guess? cheap and not too many complaints?

[ezcompany]

i am thinking of going canister filter instead cuz its leak proof and practically the same thing.
