Vertex RX-U 2.5L universal media reactor / fluidized bed filter with PVC tap, 60 cm hg.

Crystal clear screens are always the goal of every aspiring Reef Hobbyist. As pillars of the hobby, Activated Carbon and Phosphate Absorbing Media go a long way towards fulfilling this goal by absorbing many of the impurities that accumulate in the water column. In addition, the applications of PHA biodegradable plastics such as "Vertex ™ Pro-Bio Pellets" are becoming increasingly popular and prove to be an effective supplement for most nutrient export systems. The inclusion of these media in the systems has traditionally been achieved with the help of filter bags and / or cartridges. However, this is far from being the most effective means of using these products since the medias compromise compact, flowing drops and contact with the surface area. Vertex ™ Universal Media Reactors offer a practical solution by fluidizing the given media, eliminating the problem of compaction and assigning full control over the flow to the user.

Rx-U Plus Media Reactor series accomplish these tasks in style. Only the best material that is used and through precise CNC machining is a perfect combination of form and function. No costs were saved to offer the best quality and most versatile functionality. From titanium screws to QUICK-LOC lid design; ease of use, functionality, modularity and easy maintenance have been the ambitions behind the design of the RX-U series.

Rx-U plus is a perfect addition to the Vertex Universal reactor setup because removing the reactor from the system is not possible and / or convenient. Two-chamber design of the Rx-U PLUS series allows the user to remove the inner media bin from the unit to facilitate exchange without having to completely remove the reactor. Media exchange and / or addition has never been easier.

Rx-U Plus units are designed for INLINE hard plumbed and / or REMOTE soft-hose applications. Installation is a breeze and the unit can also be completely dismantled for thorough maintenance. Although the reactor is perfectly suited for carrying out probiotic media, an additional Bio-Peller add-on assembly is offered for replacing foam discs, if and when desired and / or necessary.

Crystal clear displays are always the goal of any aspiring Reef Hobbyist. As mainstays of the hobby, Activated Carbons and Phosphate Absorbing Media go a long way towards the fulfillment of this goal by absorbing many of the impurities that accumulate in the water column. Furthermore, the use of PHA Biodegradable plastics such as “Vertex ™ Pro-Bio Pellets” are becoming increasingly popular and prove to be an effective addition to most nutrient export systems. Incorporating these medias into the systems has traditionally been accomplished with the aid of filter bags and / or cartridges. However, this is far from being the most effective means of utilizing these products as the medias compact, flow-through declining and the surface area contact becomes compromised. Vertex ™ Universal Media Reactors provide a practical solution by fluidizing the given media, eliminating the problem of compaction and allocating complete control or flow-through to the user.

Rx-U Plus series Media Reactor accomplish these tasks in style. Only the finest material utilized and through precise CNC machining a perfect combination of form and function has been realized. No expense was spared to offer the best quality and most versatile functionality. From Titanium Screws to QUICK-LOC member design; ease of use, functionality, modularity and easy maintenance has the aspirations behind designing the RX-U Series.

Rx-U plus is a perfect addition to the Vertex Universal reactor line-up for when removing the reactor from system is not possible and / or convenient. Dual chamber design or Rx-U PLUS series allow the user to remove the inner media container from the unit to facilitate an exchange without the need to remove the reactor completely. Media exchange and / or replenishment has never been easier.

Rx-U Plus units are designed for INLINE hard-plumbed and / or REMOTE soft-hose applications. Set up is a breeze and further to that the unit can also be fully disassembled for thorough maintenance. While the reactor is perfectly fit to run probiotic media, additional Bio-Peller add-on assembly is offered for replacement or foam discs if and when desired and / or necessary.
