    I have the same problem in my frag tank, It is a battle. The Magnesium helps and I change out my carbon and Phosguard every three weeks instead of every month

    I would say if you are fighting a problem to double it up and change it weekly

    I'm not a fan of reactors ...they either turn gfo into concrete or dust

    I can't afford a reactor nor do I have the space for one but would like to have the option of using GFO
