Yes, I used just the one media and have been since September with success. I now have Matrix in hand but haven’t had to use it. The size of your denitrifier depends on your tank volume. What I did was take Donovan’s volume (80 gallons I believe) and divided it with mine and that gave me a multiplier. After you figure out what your DND volume is go online and search for a PVC volume calculator and you can play with various conduit sizes and lengths.Many thanks for your quick reply. So you just used one media type: bio ceramic rings? You did not use Seachem Matrix? Would you be able to share which pipes you used: diameter + height, and how many media? This way I can estimate how much media I will need.
I will make 2 towers of 4" diameter and +- 23" in height.
