    White egg crate and phosphate...

    I'm reading that white egg crate can increase phosphate. A friend on RC did an experiment and it seems to validate the problem. Any thoughts on this? My skimmer stand is made of white egg crate and my phosphate is higher than I'd like. Rising on each test to .24...I know it could be the rock...

    Flow to a GFO/Carbon reactor?

    I was thinking of how I was going to setup my GFO reactor in regard to flow. I most likely will get the BRS setup. In regard to flow, can it be feed from the return pump? Or even the gravity drain. My return pump should have more than enough flow to handle it. I asked the guys at BRS and they...

    King Brothers Plumbing fittings

    Any opinions on King Brothers plumbing supplies? Amazon has them, and the prices seem pretty good. I plan on using schedule 80, especially above the basement. The box stores seem to lack decent supplies. And a guy on RC had a Lowes ball valve fail on a closed loop and he lost 300 gallons in 3...
