I'm adding a GFO reactor into the mix and wondered if I could daisy chain it with my BP reactor. Any advice on whether it can be done successfully and which should come first? I was thinking BP since it requires a little more flow.

it'll eventually clog one or the other....u can run em individually on one pump with a splitter and control the flow on both the valve...:)
thats what i am gne do...

the bio pellet reactor lets a lil slim stuff out over time, it's my only reactor that I need to clean the exhaust tube. how much gfo are you running, may only need a small pump?? I run all independent pumps that way if one fails all others are still running.

Only running small amounts of GFO. Everything is on a manifold, I don't have room for a ton of pumps in my sump. The biofilm was my biggest concern about daisy chaining, I can run a tee and split it off, but it would just be easier to daisy chain.
