I have a 280 gallon with a 65Gallon Sump. My phosphates are up and I wanted to run some GFO.
Looking at the calculator it say i only need about 2-2.5 cups of GFO.
I have the dual BRS GFO/CARBON reactor, and i have an internal LARGE reactor.
Since its only 2 or so cups can i use the BRS which is smaller and maybe use the larger reactor for Biopellets?

Thanks

Yes.
As long as the larger reactor is set up for pellets no problem.
Be careful with the GFO, start small, test, see how it works.
It needs to tumble so don't pack the reactor unless you are running it mixed with carbon.
Hope that helps.
And welcome welcome to R2R!
