dual media in reactor.

Prolly not a new idea but I came up with a way to run dual media's in a single reactor, at least until my second arrives. Using 2 lil fishies 150, cut 4 pieces of nylon mesh from a media pouch /filter, put bottom together like normal, plastic ring, than round filter, than put screen mesh, phosban media, half way up giving room to tumble, drill a Gatorade cap to fit snug over center tube. Than on top cap put screen mesh, filter pad and another mesh screen, fill with carbon, than put another screen over the top so no charcoal exits reactor. Not ideal to run two medias but was able to tune it just right that both media fluidize and phosban doesn't pulvorize. And I ran reactor on a Y off my return pump, I'll try to add a pic later.
