If you had to choose one over the other which one would you use (Sps dominant tank)
I did have to choose. And I chose GFO. The gfo was going to gimme better bang for my buck in the reactor while the carbon in a bag in a high flow area works well enough. And I want a lot of sps so phosphates are a concern.

I went with Phosban. Mostly because it claimed to not leach phosphate back into the water and the price was right. So far liked it but it worked too well at the beginning. I used less than half the initial dosage and it really polished the water. I actually started feeding silly amounts to raise the phosphate lol.

I am a huge fan of RAP. Lots to get engaged in and I love running into so many people of a like hobby. You should if you can. There were deals to be had but you have to really seek them out. I think there's enough for anyone there. PM me if you do. It'd be good to meet you.

If that's the one I sold you, that is the mid size. If you flip the box around there is a picture of the mid size. They package the desktop and mid size in the same boxes.

Oh shoot maybe I'll keep it then! My bad I was looking at the wrong side of the box :)
