GFO By Keith on 9/7/12
Keith would recommend this product to a friend
This stuff works but with a outbreak of green hair algae and my rock leaching phosphate it depleted it far faster then I thought it would. My phosphate is 0 now thanks to this GFO but it was very costly, I would recommend normal outpt GFO if your phosphate is high like mine was, as it will still deplete quickly, just cost less in normal capacity.

First Line of Defense Against the Dreaded Cyano Scourge By Chris on 9/2/12
Chris would recommend this product to a friend
I had noticed a minor outbreak of cyano in my tank a month before ordering the high capacity GFO. Even though a phosphate check from a salifert kit said there was no detectable phosphates I went ahead and installed the high capacity GFO in a BRS reactor because ammonia, nitrite and nitrate were all 0 during the cyano outbreak. Within 48 hours of the high capacity GFO on the system there was a real notable difference. The cyano was still there but instead of that classic red, thick and slimy looking appearance, it changed to a dull grey, transparent, and fragile characteristic. It really looked like it was starved to death. Too early to say what its doing to keep algae in check, but this is definitely a must for anyone with any cyano related issues.

Best GFO out there By Chris on 8/28/12
Chris would recommend this product to a friend
I've tried several brands of GFO and this is by far the best yet, produces no fines at all when tumbled at the correct rate and has lasted twice as long as the regular GFO so far with no need to change media out yet.

Running this High Capacity in my dual BRS reactor and it keeps my Phosphate near or at zero. Me and my corals love it.....I have no nuisance algae and my tank looks great!

Wow By brandon on 8/14/12
brandon would recommend this product to a friend
This GFO cleans up good, Between this and R.O.X. my numbers dropped to 0 all across the board. LFS actually said my water was too clean. Dont take that as a bad thing, just had to cut back a bit and get used to using a superior product. It may cost a bit more but it last LONGER as it is WAY MORE efficient! Cant beat it.

Works better than what I've been using By David on 8/11/12
David would recommend this product to a friend
Ive been buying my GFO from my local aquarium store but the quality was not nearly as good as the BRS HC. The stuff I used to buy had very small fines that would end up in my refugium. BRS HC has the perfect size grains and after a quick rinsing they don't end up anywhere but where there suppose to be, in the reactor plus I don't have to use as much. I highly recommend the BRS HC feric oxide and will continue to use it as long as I have a reef aquarium

Best GFO on the market IMO. Have it running in a filter bag in my AquaClear 110 HOB power filter. It's working wonders.

Too early to tell By Colin on 7/25/12
Colin would recommend this product to a friend
Got the GFO high capacity about 2 or 3 months ago seems to have made a decent dent in algae growth. I also cut my light cycle down by a couple hours so I don't know if that helped. I also have read that it takes several months to really start working. Overall satisfied with the product

Much easier to work with than regular capacity By Joshua on 7/25/12
Joshua would recommend this product to a friend
In my experience, the high capacity GFO produced far fewer fines than the regular capacity. I use less and less each time, and am down to a tablespoon on my 20 long, which is good for 3+ weeks feeding 1/4 - 1/3 cube of frozen per day. From what I've read, it also holds up to regeneration better since it is much more dense. I've yet to regenerate any of my GFO yet since I use so little, so I can't speak from experience.

Finally GFO with low rinsing requirements By Martin on 5/11/12
Martin would recommend this product to a friend
Oh my lord !!! This is by far the best GFO available to the market. Very low dust.....like 1 or 2 rinse and I'm done. And the Phosphate.....what phosphate ? I mean yes it's on the pricy side but hey....no compromise with all those corals in the Tank.

0 Phosphates! By Jesse on 4/25/12
Jesse would recommend this product to a friend
Something I have never been able to achieve in my reef tank is 0 phosphates. Adding this in to my dual BRS reactor has made it possible. Corals are growing at a much faster rate now and the tank is looking crystal clear! Just wish the GFO wasn't so expensive, but it is well worth it and as you keep using it the less you will need.

I use GFO and ROWA. Both work just as well as far as my water tests are concerned. I go with which ever one is a better value.
