DIY Calcium Reactor , Auto-Top, and remote sumps
Edit: Just realized i titled this Kalk and not Calcium Reactor.
Fixed.
Made a couple of new things. Most of the DIY was in the theme of "using what you’ve got". You may recognize some parts being used for other things.
See it here:
(Picture 16 is my new reactor. Built out of an old biological filter)

Changes for April of 06:
Built a DIY Calcium Reactor with secondary chamber
Started with a yeast reactor and switched to 5lb CO2
Used "ghetto" crushed coral and found NO phosphates after 72 hours
Built a DIY Kalk auto top off
Simple bent acrylic method with $3 float switch.
Monitored by Neptune ACII which drives a pressure vessel
Redesigned the refugium
Replaced blue acrylic tank with a clear one (better to see my critters!)
1.5" Magic Mud (huhu), 1" fine cc, 1/2" coarse cc
Trimmed back the macro in a big way (but has already grown back)
