Hello tundra, Most people use these reactors for carbon. Really you can use them for most filter media.
I know a few nano Zeovit keepers that have converted them into Zeo-reactors also.
In your situation I would just stick to carbon and phosban.

I have 2xTLF 150 reactors. I would recommend running carbon in one and Phosban (or other phosphate remover media) in the other (but only when needed).
If you system is established and you have a skimmer that can handle the load, good circulation and do scheduled water changes, I don't believe in running phosphate removers 24x7.
