DIY media reactor?

[Kenn]

That looks really great.

where were you when I ordered my 2 media reactors ? 

[cyberwollf]

Ok, aquaclear sponges aren't the best.  Im using BRS ROX 0.8 which is much smaller than the normal carbon I have seen.... I works its way THROUGH the sponge.

What do you think of using a smaller cell sponge, like cheap kitchen sponges? As long as its new and doesnt have any soap or anti mold stuff it should be good right?

Any other ideas? maybe wrap screen around the aquaclear sponge and use it like a french coffee press?

Ok, its impossible to buy a regular kitchen sponge, Everything has the antimicrobial stuff on it.

And now i have about 1/2 a cup of carbon floating in my sump any other ideas for a media separator?

[HUNGER]

maybe a net  cut apert ?

You need to go to a cheaper store. I get cheap sponges at the dollar store without any of that stuff in them.

It looks like you answered your own question...It sounds like it floats

Well.... I was using one of the reactors to run some carbon after I dosed flatworm exit. The reactor fell over, shattered one of my brand new baffels in my new sump AND spilled a full pound of carbon in my sump. So I picked up the reactor and threw it completly across my basement where it shattered into pieces against the wall !!

So... Josh, can I get another piece of 1/8"

I've got 2 or 3 more sheets that size in my trunk, did you notice any difference with it being anti-glare?
