SOLID PURCHASE!!! By Dolmo5000 on 5/6/13

Although I find the need to flush BRS gfo more than others I have used in the past, the cost difference more than makes up. Another solid product out of the BRS team!

Have been using for about 3 weeks so far with no change in my phosphate level. Doing water changes also. Need more time to evaluate not sure about recommending yet. Phos Ban maybe better.

Pongo would recommend this product to a friend
Having started with SW in the dark ages and then coming back to it alot has changed and gfo is certainly a great product. I had been battling dino's for a few weeks. Within 24 hrs of starting with gfo I noticed a immediate reduction in dinos to almost complete elimination in less than a week.

Great product but attention to detain in packaging the product is lacking By Glenn on 4/11/13
Glenn would recommend this product to a friend
Great product. My first purchase of this product was exceptional in all ways, but my recent purchase was less than desireable. The 5 gallon container had GFO all over the outside of the plastic bucket and in the bottom of the shipping box.
Attention to detain was lacking!

works great By Andy C on 4/8/13
Andy C would recommend this product to a friend
I'm running 1.5 cups in the dual reactor for 200 gallons, which is half of what the BRS calculator recommends. The reactor can't handle much more per cartridge and still keep things flowing. I change it every two weeks, rather than use 3 cups and change monthly. So far so good with this system.
Eventually I want to get a separate reactor for carbon and then just run 1.5 cups in each side of the dual reactor, but the system is working so far for me.

Less is more By Christian on 4/4/13
Christian would recommend this product to a friend
Does what it should. My only complaint is the particle size, as it can work through the sponges in your reactor. Makes setting the flow a bit tricky. I would suggest starting with a little less than the recommended amount by the BRS calculator. GFO can and does release Iron into your system, so use only what you need. Saves your system from Iron (HARD to get back out) and your wallet, at the same time! Also, I run one gallon of tank water through my reactor, to rinse, when I change it out. Helps a lot with the fines.

be careful of how much flow you use to make this tumble.if you run too much it blow some it into your sump area.other than that works to keep phospahtes low

Good product. By Felixpaws on 3/13/13

I've used this for years, and I highly recommend it, for its phosphate reduction. I have no choice, but to use unfiltered well water, and this works great to reduce phosphates, in my 75 gallon, and 120 gallon reef tanks. I have a clam, anemones, and sps in the tank, all growing great.

Added Insurance! By David on 3/10/13
David would recommend this product to a friend
I was having problems with GHA, though my Nitrates and Phosphates tested in the '0' range. Upon addition of GFO, I noticed a reduction in the algae. It would no longer return when I physically removed it. It didn't happen overnight, but the reduction was obvious. I put about 4 OZ in a bag in the sump and replace every several months. It's part of my routine maintenance.

I started running BRS GFO about 1 year ago during a hair algae outbreak, and within a month, that problem was gone. Paired with the BRS reactor, and a monthly change of GFO, I haven't seen a strand of the green stuff since. It's a much more rewarding hobby when our tank is the envy of your fellow reefers!
