Also those wika gauges are nice but to me it's not necessary because once you are happy with your bubbles...I never have to look back again simply because it's truly "set and forget" so I hardly have to look at my gauges again.

that's the Frankenstein version of the calcium reactor
Love my GEO618 it's a solid piece of equipment and if it matters to you its made in America
Nice!! I love the DIY. I did a kalk reactor and works perfect.Haha, it's a thing of beauty
However, it's 4 x the size of my old reactor but uses 3 x less CO2 because I only need to have the internal pH at 6.5 with a slow drip effluent rate.
I got some pointers from Bill Wann and he gave it the thumbs up, yay

Dude........... that was deep, you made me cry.
Uhm yeah no doubt the Dastaco.
It really depends of the size of your tank but for the money you get it's really a nice reactor.
Simple and easy, you just tell it what ALK # you want your tank to run at and BINGO!
What media are you running in that?Here's an idea for a second stage to help scrub any excess co2 out.
What media are you running in that?
If you have to open the valve to release co2, then you are probably pumping in too much. When was the last time you calibrated your ph probe? I had a similar problem, found out my ph probe was off a bit. Once I calibrated the probe, it was good to goI bought the 624 with the apex jr for premiumaquatics. Great setup. The only quirky part I could was that the effluent control valve needs to be opened all the way periodically due to buildup.
Other than that it's probably one of the best purchases I've made for my tank.
