Carbon in P-Reactor

[ohioreef]

Has anyone ever run carbon in a Phosban Reactor?
Could I run phosban and carbon at the same time?
Seems like a good way to kill 2 birds with one stone.

I've not seen them at Jack's.
I just bought one from a fellow reefer on another board.
I just thought if I could run both at the same time I'd not have to run a seperate filter for the carbon.
Just curious, what part of Ohio are you from?

or you could make your own 2 stage reacotr out of a pvc tube like I am doing.... that way you wont mix the medias up.

pwnag3,
Diagram or pics by chance?!?
Probably would be a good idea to keep them seperate. The carbon would probably need replaced more than the phosban. Of course, could probably put the carbon in a filter bag?!?

well i can describe it the best that i can....
you just take a PVC tube and cap one end off with a slip fitting.
drill a hole in that in and silicone in a 1/2" insert
get a slip union and put it on the other end... and cap off one part and put in the 1/2" insert on that one.
I was just going to seperate the media with filter bags...
it probably costs less that 10 bucks to make...
im doing it tomorrow
