Where to put a phosphate reactor

[nico]

Hi There all, where in the sump is the best place to put a phosphate reactor, Skimer compartment or rerturn compartment?

Either doesn't make much difference, as long as it comes after the skimmer.

Ditto - I have mine in the last chamber - where my return pump and heater is...

More important is to place the input pump in an upstream section and the effluent in a downstream section - increases the efficiency of the unit.

agreed, my input is over the DSB and the return in the return pump chamber
