Looking to setup moving bed filter using k1 for 90 Gallon tank. Anyone tried using phosphate reactor unit to move the media? I was thinking Lifeguard 300 fluidized filter or similar external HOB unit to do it.

those are far too small for K1, you can create a fluidized bed filter with sand just fine but not K1, you need something bigger for that size tank.

Looks like I'm just going with your recommendations of two sponges. Simple cheap and works.
