Crumb up Biopellet

[sherman]

Hi bro,

Do you have this experience ?

Recently I found my biopellet will crumbled up as a big lump in my FR.

Do you have this experience?

What is the cause and what can be done to eliminate this.

Thanks

Bro are u using FR45 to run the biopellets?

I am using FR45 and encounter the same problem.. wonder is it due to FR design..

cause I don't see this problem in JNS biopellet reactor.

I'm running fr and it happened to me as well. Wonder if change stronger flow pump help?

Same here... Anyone mind to share how to resolve it? I'm using bubble magus pump 1000l/hr...

Hi bros. I also used to have this problem. What I did was drain of whatever liquid/water there is then start run again. It should float like what it is intended to. But once u notice that it clumps up must try to straight away deal with it. Thats my 2 cents worth, hope it helps

Ya, I am using FR45. Top spongeremove for stronger flow.

I use Jns don't have such problem.

JNS is it the same design as the FR45? I think TLF has another bigger model

Will the bigger model have the same problem

JNS omega looks like this:

Those JNS reactors that have built-in circulation pump don't have the crumble up issue.

FR45 seems to have some "blind spot" above the black colour nozzle where the crumb will start to form and expand.

I tried it but seems it still crumb up in the end. Does increase the power of the water pump help? Thinking to upgrade to 1,700l/hr.

Bro, try to increase the flow. Usually crumbing of biopellet is due to dead spot or low flow as bacteria built up.

Ok. Maybe this weekend buy the 1,700l/hour and see whether its help. Thanks bro!

Sometime too high flow might not help..the flow best to be just nice to tumble the pellet..my FR is t-joint from jebao dc6000 n the flow is throttle by a valve which I on ard half..cheers n happy reefing
