Hey guys picked up this reactor and it has a very unusual configuration.

Was going to hook it up but alittle confused on the best way

I was.thinking at the bottom two way tee where the CO2 goes Into.the middle I would make the water enter from there and go to the inlet of the pump and then make the pump push water into the middle and have the outlet on the top.


I am going to drill a hole for a PH probe on the top.

I can think of about 15 different combinations for plumbing just wondering what would be the best cheers guys.

The weird part is the outlet in the middle. Usually you have the inlet at the bottom "T". A recirculating pump is also hooked up down there. The pump pushes water back up to the inlet at the top. Maybe the middle was for a water drain when changing out the media.
 

Going off the ledge: Would you be interested in a drop off aquarium?
