Just toying with the idea of using them in the Miracle. How did you tie yours into your sump?
Mine are mounted to the top frame separate pump from first chamber inflow with effluent going into return section. I got the large reactor wish I got the mini size as I don’t need that much gfo and carbon and they take up too much real estate.

Can you use singly with the dual? I'd rather have the option for both or either.

GFO reactors. I need some input. Who's running them?
I have a cheap Aquatop MR20 reactor I got off Amazon. Between the plates I keep carbon, so it doesnt grind itself into dust, and under the plates just sitting on the bottom is 2tbsp of GFO. The inlet pipe goes all the way to the bottom and flows up thru the media, so it keeps the GFO stirred, kinda...

A reactor I believe is more efficient and would remove junk quicker. A bag works albeit at a slower rate. X amount of carbon removes y amount of junk either way. Some folks rather a bag for a slower change in water clarity but if ya got a holy moly got something bad going reactor will be faster
