Has anyone seen a Zeolith reactor for purchase that looks like this?

[Alexander1312]

I cannot find it to purchase anywhwere in the US, but I assume it is a rather old school device, so I cannot believe it is not being sold at all.

Please let me know if you have seen this anywhere. Thanks!

Reading up on these reactors -it’s says you have to manually agitate them daily?
That would be a no-go for me…

The one on the picture does not require this daily agitation, which is what the second pump is for. Hence the price tag, which is over 600 EUR / 660 USD….. I am using aquaforest zeolite in a regular media reactor, and my nitrate dropped to 7, without additional agitation.

So who is the maker of the one pictured? Or link to it -I am curious.

Fauna makes them, but I assume they are getting them from somewhere (in Asia?).

ZeoMatic 2 - 4,5 ltr. inkl. 2 Sicce Pumpen

Der erste Zeolithfilter mit automatischer Spülung. Täglich anlastende Biofilme müssen von dem Zeolith entfernt werden um das Material optimal nutzen zu können.

The issue with this device though is that it seems very effective, almost too much. Some folks getting their triple digit nitrates down to single-digit numbers, which can become a problem too, but it can be controlled by the number of daily flushes, or turning it off if needed.

This only helps with Nitrate. My go to for phosphate has settled on GFO, after considering all the pros and cons of other methods.

I am both carbon dosing and back to diluted lanth. See if lanth 2.0 doesn’t land in the system like last time. Set it up slightly different so hopefully not.
