Reef Octopus Bio-Churn 120INT Biopellet Reactor
Does a great job keeping pellets moving, unlike any other reactor I've seen or used. However, after 2 days of cloudy water, forget the pellets for now.

Powerhead
Tunze Comline Wavebox 6208
Worked OK, but had to keep wave too small to avoid oversplashing and did not help with rear right dead spot as originally planned. Ordered new 6105 to act as a replacement.
