They seem really interesting. A lot of biopellet users resort to running GFO as well since BP's aren't great at keeping phosphates low. These might change that. I thought there may be some BP users that would be interested.

I'll have to read that later. I run gfo but have been thinking about a nitrate reduction of some sort too although mine tested low. Just as back up. I looked a a denitrator, bio pellets and fuge/another turf scrubber but I haven't pulled the trigger on any as of yet.

I saw this on ReefBuilders yesterday. I bought a BP reactor several weeks ago for the new tank and have yet to buy a pump or the pellets. Think I might wait till these are out and see what the consensus is... Definitely looks interesting!

I have been wanting to try a BP reactor! Maybe these will get me to pull the trigger

do they dissolve like reg bio pellets if so I don't want that gfo floating in my tank. but still cool companies are pushing the envelope

I assume they do. I don't think it's GFO mixed in, but I did think the same thing when I saw a pic of them. It certainly looks like a blend of BP and GFO. Hopefully it's some other kind of magic though.
