Calling DIY kings!!!

Not exactly sure what he has going on there, but for both of my TLF pellet reactors, all I did was remove the short top plate inside, flip the long tube over, put a mesh screen over the red plate, and a short piece of clear tube inside to connect the long rigid tube with the plate to the inlet on top. Then put a MJ1200 on the inlet, and you're good to go. My pellets tumble like crazy.

Here is a similar mod, although mine doesn't ruin any of the parts, so you can use them later.

Yeah, that way works also.. But I'm trying to control the flow out..
 
Although, I must say, I love the pellets in my fowler. Some pellets + GAC + GFO + good skimmer = NO WC's ;)
 
So all he is doing is looping water with his MJ. Pellets should tumble slow, I would run MJ400 or MJ600 to make the loop. I would feed this with MJ400 and put valve on output for flow.

 
i have one made it myself work awsome but not really need for it
i can adjust flow thru the reactor without effecting tumbling of bio palets , so i can adjust how fast nitrates can be pulled out of the system
 
the best mod is to use vinegar with a doser. 3 bucks a gallon for vingar, you can meter it, use it to clean pumps, and make a great cucumber salad.
2 cucumbers
1 small red onion
1 1/2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
2 teaspoons dried dill
