Reactor Selection
Hi Greg...I know your tank is 400+ gallons plus the sump and other water volume. I'm trying to get a sense of relative reactor volume to total system volume. Your reactor is 14" tall so I figure the PM would handle my water volume.
However, I like your scheme of 3 reactors in series... makes it easier to change out media (little at a time vs all at once charging). Is there any other advantage to using separate reactors ?

Ditto. I have three that I run in series. About once every 6 weeks I take the first one off line, clean it, recharge it, and make it the last in the series.
