Lifegard Aquatics Side Flow Turbo Reactor
SKU: PT01544316781ea/LG
Up to 75 gallons, All Lifegard Turbo Reactors are engineered to the highest quality and efficiency to promote the growth of Nitrate and Phosphate reducing bacteria and Enzymes. They name TURBO is due to a unique high flow spinning action to provide the highest water quality in a short time. The internal mechanism provides a unique anti-clumping spiral flow that maximizes the media contact time as well as greater flow through the media. Resulting in an accelerated chemical and biological filtration to quickly remove nitrates, phosphates, slime algae and other nuisance algae for a marine or freshwater aquarium. Our design allows the ease of maintenance. Whether you want to change, add or mix media, simply unscrew the plastic screws on the top to remove the top cover and it opens up for full access. Turbo Reactors are designed to run Bio-pellets of ALL shapes and sizes, GFO, Carbon etc. It comes with diffuser plates and 2 pieces of foam for GFO and other fine filter media.

- Assembly Instructions: Remove the Reactor from the box and review the parts breakdown line drawing to familiarize yourself to the reactorIf using Bio Pellet type beads: (Not Included)NOTE: When using Bio Pellets you don’t need the sponges (Top or Bottom)This reactor can handle several different types of beads1. Remove the 2 nylon screws from the top cover2. Add recommended amount of media into the chamber3. Close the top cover and make sure there is no media or debris on or around it. Replace the nylon screws and “Hand Tighten Only”.4. Familiarize yourself with the top Flow Control Cover so you know how to control the flow high and low5. Insert the outlet of the pump into the bottom of the base and “Hand Tighten” the support screwsIf using GFO or other fine media: (Not Included)NOTE: You will need the two sponges supplied. Pack the media in-between the top and bottom sponge.1. Add the Bottom Sponge on Top of the Bottom diffuser plate2. Add the desired/recommended amount GFO / Carbon / other Media3. Place the Top sponge below the Top and attach the Top diffuser plate to the top cover as shown in the drawingsNOTE: Flow rate must be adjusted based on the amount and brand and amount of Bio Pellets used1. Bio Pellets typically take 4-6 weeks to begin working. As drastic changes are not desirable, it is recommended that you start with only 50% of the bio pellets then add 25% more bio pellets each week.2.
