Today after work I installed my second Drop 2 purchased in the recent group buy.The first scrubber was installed last year around the end of August,and is doing a great job.I would like to eliminate gfo use with the second scrubber and if doesn't work I always have a backup.My tank is a jbj 28g and it has been running for a year and a half.I did jump start the new scrubber with some algae here are a couple pictures I will update the new scrubber next Friday.View attachment 7965View attachment 7966
 
What difference did you see after installing the scrubber ( is glass cleaner from algae) ( did nitrate and phosphate drop)?

The biggest difference I seen was my phosphate level went from 0.11 to 0.03-0.06 range
 
Here is a update six weeks on the new scrubber good growth since I cleaned both scrubbers last week.I started to reduce gfo in the reactor but will do it slow, reducing it by tablespoon every time I switch the gfo.The new scrubber is on the left in the picture.

Any updates?
I have lower the amount of gfo by half over the last month and I checked the phosphates last night and a little high 0.10 according to Hanna checker.I will do a water change and put some fresh gfo in and test again in two weeks to see if I get the same results.
