    How should the sponges be placed in a reactor that is running GAC? I know you want a "wave" for GFO, but what do I do for GAC? Should I have the sponge on the top of the GAC so it can't move to decrease the GAC from eroding?

    Yes. Pack it snugly so it does not move around and grind itself to dust.
