why not both? i run pellets and gfo, i did experiment and phos doesn't drop that much with bio pellets not enough to use alone as phos remover.

I would start with BP and when you get down to 0 nitrate, check phosphates. If you have more than .05, SLOWLY add GFO. For reactors, I've used nextreef for both which are nice but I'm really digging the innovative marine reactor. It's so much easier to replace media and you'll get a nice tumble for BP. You can use one for GFO as well. You can also adjust the flow just by turning the top basically.
