Does anybody run ecobak EZ pellets in a media bag?

[moz71]

Curious and can’t find anything on forums of people using the Exobak EZ pellets in a media bag in sump? And any success? I got so tired of using a reactor with regular pellets due to constant clogging and uneven results. The product says it can be placed in media bag in sump. So curious on results or problems. I have also run NOPOX which does work great but I do see a obvious problem where my RBTA is extremely unhappy running at a dose needed for my tank. Not sure if biopellets would be different but hoping the bacteria generated is more concentrated to the pellets and not free floating in tank. Any thoughts appreciated

Yeah, it indicates you can just bag them in your sump to work passively. I don't like using NOPOX either as it tends to tick off many of the corals. I use MarinePure cermaic media in a similar manner.

I have been thinking of that too! I guess you are saying that it really works for you with helping reduce nitrates? I have a pretty large bio load!
