Hi all,
So I just recently implemented a calcium reactor and in an effort to battle low ph I was thinking of implementing a co2 scrubber, however, when I got to thinking the increase in ph and potential increase of alk/ca consumption will cause me to up the amount of effluent or lower the ph in the reactor therefore potentially cancelling out the effects of the co2 scrubber. Am I correct in thinking that the two will cancel each other out? Or are the effects of the co2 scrubber and ph raise greater than the changes needed on the calcium reactor? Does anyone have experiences with calcium reactors and co2 scrubbers? Thanks in advance!
