Stability is king in our systems and it’s hard to beat a calcium reactor when it comes to keeping alkalinity, calcium steady and with some magnesium media, that too. But with any potentially great do-dad in our sump, it’s limited by what’s plugged into it. So how do you guys & gals steadily feed...
I have an AquaMaxx cTech T-NANO hang-on calcium reactor. I just set it up on my 11-gallon aquarium because I recently got my first stony coral frags and want to start maintaining proper chemistry for these corals.
I’m using a Versa peristaltic dosing pump from EcoTech Marine to dose the...
Need help figuring out what to do on my next build and what equipment to run. Currently I mix kalk in a 5 gal pail then transfer it to my ATO. It keeps my Ph, calcium and alkalinity stable. I’ve been considering a calcium reactor but my pH is already low 7.8 and I’ve heard they can lower pH. Can...

So in setting up the bigger tank (link below in signature) I’m revamping my old calcium reactor which is a MRC CR-1.
originally this setup was feed by a maxi jet 1200 pump and used a needle valve for adjustments. For the new tank I got a new Kamoer FX STP2 continuous duty pump to use as the feed...
Reefer 250 around 18 months old.
Finally getting the hang of keeping sps. So I got rid of a big monti and went crazy with the sticks. This thing will be packed if I can keep everything in line. I've got 9 more frags to find spots for. I can't wait for these to take off!
So I'm completely new to reactors and got an IM reactor in a recent tank pick up. I guess my question is, what is the difference between media reactor vs a calcium reactor? Can you use one for the other or are they completely independent?
What are your thoughts about how much daily or weekly pH swing is acceptable in your calcium reactor? This is pretty much what I get in the graphic below, about .1 pH variation per day. Is this typical? Is your reactor more steady?
Hi everyone,
I have a 300 gallon mixed reef system, and I am trying to make my tank a tad more stable/automated since I am traveling out of state for weeks at a time due to school. I am switching from a bubble magus dosing system (using biotech two part solution) to a korallin calcium reactor...
Calcium reactor. Works fantastic! Rated for 240 gal OR 120 sps dominant. I had on an sps dominant 160 maintained perfect!
$230 shipped. I also have the co2 regulator that plugs in (was controlled by apex) $35 to add in box.
Pm is key.
Everything is in perfect working condition

Has anyone tried the Red Sea Reef Energy Coral nutrition A/B ?
What effects does it have on calcium and magnesium? How can the calcium and mag dip and rise without doing anything? Started dosing Alkalinity by Red Sea. Need to get CO2 to get my calcium reactor running. Who’s used a calcium...
I am working on setting up a Deltec Twin Tech CaRx and I am looking to calculate the initial flow rate for the effluent.
I currently dose 2 dKh per day to my tank which has a net volume of around 820 litres.
The reactor works on the total CO2 saturation, thus from my understanding the dKh...
The KAMOER FX STP continuous duty pumps are out of stock almost everywhere.
And they definitely are selling for more than $250.
I have a contact that can get this item if anyone needs or wants one.
Just let me know.

Hi Folks,
I moved into a new house last year and unfortunately my system crashed during the move. I have since switched to a freshwater system and no longer need my saltwater-only equipment. As a result I have two pieces of equipment for sale currently. This is the second piece of equipment.
