Octo BR140 BioPellet Reactor

Biopellet Reactor is Specifically Designed for the Use of Solid Carbon Dosing Biopellets

The Reef Octopus BR140 Biopellet Reactor provides a specialized chamber for the effective fluidization of solid carbon dosing media. Designed for in-sump or external use, this reactor features a unique cone-bottom design that helps direct water flow upward through the media, preventing the "dead spots" or clumping often found in flat-bottom reactors. By keeping biopellets in a constant state of motion, the BR110 maximizes the surface area available for beneficial bacteria to colonize and consume excess nitrates and phosphates.

The Reef Octopus BR140 requires a feed pump capable of providing 800-1060gph. Its transparent, high-quality acrylic body allows you to easily monitor media levels and movement. With a capacity of up to 1 liter of media, it is an ideal nutrient management solution for aquariums up to 265 gallons, helping you achieve the pristine water quality required for sensitive marine life.

Key Features:

• Fluidizing Cone Design: The conical base plate ensures an even distribution of water flow for a superior media tumble.
• Top-Loading Access: The secure lid allows for easy media additions and routine maintenance without removing the entire unit.
• Small Footprint: The compact 8.3-inch square base fits into most standard sump configurations easily.
• Precision Sieve Plates: Internal screens keep media securely inside the reactor while allowing high-volume water passage.
• Durable Construction: Crafted from high-quality, hand-polished acrylic for a professional look and long service life.

Ideal For:

• Mixed reef and SPS aquariums up to 265 gallons that require consistent nitrate export.
• Intermediate to advanced hobbyists looking for a universal biopellet setup.
• Aquarists using standard biopellet media like Reef Octopus BioSpheres or NPX Bioplastics.
• Hobbyists wanting to reduce their reliance on liquid carbon dosing or frequent water changes.
