mine has never been good, even after cleaning, perhaps too much media to push through?

how much do y'all fill the reactors - i have mine at 2/3 full

The phosban is 1/3 - 1/4 full and the carbon is usually 1/2 - 2/3 full.

I am hesitant to order another mini-jet 606.... Maybe I should get a maxijet instead...

oo, maybe why mine is low to begin with, but i was thinking was the pumps too, hate the 606, just not very strong

I change phosphate media monthly on a tank running a reactor if a put phosphate removal media into a tank that has high phosphate as a removal tool as apposed to a maintain toll every 48 hours & then cook it & do it again until the phosphate levels have dropped
