    Quick Q about media. (my 1st reactor) dual chamber 5" and 4" I was thinking about using a corase media in #1 and a fine in #2. I figure that the finer media will have more contact the raise the effluent PH a liittle more than the corase. Am I right? Or should I just use coarse in both??

    I am setting up my calcium reactor. I don't know if its just that I am tired but these instructions for my pinpoint PH controller suck. I have it calibrate. I want it to controll my CO2 solenoid. I want it to have a centerline of 6.8 with a range of +-4. 6.6-7.0 according to the MRC...

    I purchased a used a Myreefcreations CR-6. It is a dual chamber reactor. It has a pinpoint PH monitor, PH, blue line pump. It has the T adapter so you can check the effulent going from the first chamber to the second. It also has the regulators and bubble counter. I have a few questions. 1) I...

    Okay, as many of you know I currently have a 125G SPS tank,.. the only reason this tank ever ended up with water in it was a comedy skit worth of errors,.. the fact that it got lights and coral never should have happened, then I went SPS with it, which also never should have happed,.. For the...

    OK, here we go... I bought a 90g reef-ready tank from Sea Dreams to replace the 55g tank sitting in my family room. I wanted something a little larger without going to a 6' tank. I will be running it with a 45g sump which should give me a nice volume of water. The sump used to run DNGSPOT's...

    I just checked the levels of my 180 gallon sps tank. Specs: Total volume = 220 gallons Mg = 1410 ppm Ca = 420 ppm Alk = 2.51 Meq/L pH = 8.2 Question, the alk keeps dropping lower in relation to my calcium. I am running a calcium reactor to try and deliver equal parts to maintain levels and...

    ok, so after following Hendersonracings' thread I am no longer scared to death of a Calcium Reactor, and of course want one :funny: . So I started looking around and I like the Geo's and the Koralin reactors. Do these run like skimmers, ie. Get the biggest you can afford? Does anyone know...

    I think I'll play along with the build-off as well. I have ordered a custom Oceanic tank, and while I'm currently waiting for it (and wondering if it will ever show up), I have been keeping busy with my current set-up and planning for the new one. If you look at my few other posts on this board...

    I got a Pinpoint pH Monitor a few days ago and was quite surprised when I let in run on my 120g tank. The pH swings from around 8.22 during the day to 7.94 at night. I can only conclude this is due to dissolved CO2 from the calcium reactor, since the pH in my other two bare-bottom tanks only...

    There seems to be a lot of little parts to a Ca reactor that I dont understand (bubble counter, flow meter. needle something...). I was just wondering opinions of what is necessary? There seems to be two levels of reactors. Bare bones ones and all the frills ones. I am considering buying one and...
