I wanted to do this but i thought that the mud would fluidize and dust out of the reactor and end up in the sup making clean up hard... I like the floss idea i might even put some in the chaeto ractors
Hello Good morning, I hope you're succeeding in your aquarium. I have a question, I want to know if you still use Miracle Mud in your reactor or if you switched to Triton?
This is not the way how ECO systems have recommended it to be used. Has it worked out well for you? What changes did you see in your system after placing it?
Thinking to add miracle mud but not in a reactor i gonna out it in my reservoir water put in and small pump to just move the water and the ATO do the rest
Great vid. So how much do you use for your tank or is it just by eye. Also doesn’t the mud just fluidise into your system? Sorry if questions seem strange to you hoping to use this on my setup.
That’s no way enough to have an impact on the tank, have u seen the recommended amount to use ? I can’t help but feel this is an incorrect way to use the product, do you think that small amount makes a difference ? Also are you running your skimmer 24/7
Red sea reefer 750xxl You'd be surprised. Just like any other additive and trace element supplementation, it's a cumulative affect that benefits the reef system. The Miracle Mud utilization in this method addresses mineralization and consumption of the particulates which contributes to the overall health of the reef inhabitants. Though it does not allow for pod and macroalgae propogation in this particular method, utilizing the Mud in this application allows for people without room for a full refugium to benefit from the addition of trace elements and macro and micro nutrients especially during the initial "clouding" of the fine fine mineral particulates released into the main system. Lastly, changing out the media more often, every 3 to 4 months, allows for the replenishment of the minerals that get spent quicker in this reactor method. :) Hope this helps. :D
Awesome update Paul. I was waiting for this Vid to come out. Many Thanks what kinx of flow you run through it does it tumble gently like GFO? I have a spare Reactor TLF 150 which I am planning to use.
Krishna Karkera depends how you mean? My way is a refugium free tank way so won't be utilising it for pods. But as in utilising all the minerals and elements this is the way forward.
Well done Paul and congrates on 1K
Dave's Nano Tanks cheers Dave.
Cool way to do it! On a side note I have never seen a lidless waterfall style reactor like that!
ReefDudes Ultra Reef great reactors.
Great video! Thank you for all the great info. Congratulations on 1,000 subscribers brother!
Cheers lets see if it stays there been up and down all week
Reef Community Worldwide you'll stay up there channel is to good not too
I will try this. Thank you!
Nice one Paul 👍🏻
Helpful. Thanks
Smart! I put my MM in a tuperware bin and the flow is blowing it into other baffles.
Thanks for the video Paul, I'm going to give it a shot and this is very helpful!

I think once I change sumps Im going to try this. Did you make that 2nd black sponge yourself?
ReefingwithO yes black sponge cut myself.
Nice video. I have been thinking about doing the very same thing in my reef. Thank you for some great information :)

I still use it always run triton but I use the other methods

I have been working with Leng Sy the creator of miracle mud, so I believe it is how it can be run
How is this working out for you still in the reactor can you do an update
Thinking to add miracle mud but not in a reactor i gonna out it in my reservoir water put in and small pump to just move the water and the ATO do the rest

seancolly i use around a pound and half and flow is slow so its passing through not fluidizing.

Awesome question though! :)
Great video, will be getting the mud. Where in chamber you put the biscuits lol
Ooh might have to get me one of those!..Congratulations on the 1000 subs! 🎉🍾👌
Whats your flow? and how long do you think it lasts before feeling that you have to replace it from replenishing?
flow so its just moving and around 3-4 months before replacing.
Genius idea!!Do you think this would work with the BRS GFO/Carbon reactor?
It does I used one
did it still lower you nitrates when you used it in this manner?
@@Eaglefires yes it certainly did
Awesome update Paul. I was waiting for this Vid to come out. Many Thanks what kinx of flow you run through it does it tumble gently like GFO? I have a spare Reactor TLF 150 which I am planning to use.
Ash it doesn't tumble... the Miracle Mud media is sandwiched between sponges and filter floss... :)
Ash at around 2 minutes i say you dont want it fluidising. Pack it down with sponge and floss.

I guess how aaron created miracle mud refugium will have more sucess than reactor..
Krishna Karkera depends how you mean? My way is a refugium free tank way so won't be utilising it for pods. But as in utilising all the minerals and elements this is the way forward.
Reef Community Worldwide great
