Description

Aquaforest Media Reactors

Aquaforest Media Reactors are saltwater aquarium filtration reactors built to hold your choice of filtration media and run it efficiently, even in demanding reef and marine systems. They suit marine aquarists who want a flexible media reactor for carbon, phosphate adsorbent or zeolite, whether it sits in the sump or beside the aquarium.

Key Benefits

  • High-quality universal fluidization filter, so you can pick the media that suits your aquarium.
  • Works with activated carbon, phosphate adsorbents and zeolites from any manufacturer.
  • Smart-twist opening for simple media replacement.
  • Fully leak-proof design, so it can be placed inside or outside the sump.
  • Adjustable sieve height.
  • Resistant to scratches and discolouration.
  • Ergonomic body that makes handling and media changes easier wherever the reactor is installed.
  • Internal sponges help keep filter media from entering your system.

How to Use

  • Place the reactor in the sump chamber, or outside the aquarium when sump space is limited. The leak-proof design suits either position.
  • Connect it using the supplied hose ends.
  • Fill it with your chosen filtration media and set the sieve to the height you need.
  • When the media needs replacing, use the smart-twist system to open the reactor.

Suitable For

  • Saltwater aquariums, including demanding marine setups.
  • Aquarists who want to run activated carbon, phosphate adsorbents or zeolites in a dedicated reactor.
  • Systems with limited sump space, since the reactor can be installed outside the aquarium.

Compatibility

  • Works with activated carbon, phosphate adsorbents and zeolites from any manufacturer.
  • Aquaforest strongly recommends its own optimised media mix: AF Carbon, Phosphate Minus and Zeo Mix.
