I just got one of these guys, couldn’t find a lot of examples of them running. Is it common for there to be air bubbles at the top of the unit. I can’t seem to fully purge them.

I won an AquaMaxx T2 at an auction. The pump seals let in air bubbles like crazy until I went and resealed every single one. I run it tipped on it's side so that I can get most of them out of the pH probe hole since I do not use it.

So I switched the inlet with the outlet and so far that seems to be semi fixing the issue. Unsure where the extra air is coming from. Especially since the co2 is only on during x window.

How do you like the calcium reactor. I'm thinking of getting one soon.

It is fine. I like the korallin better, but just preference...not a huge difference with either.
