Calcium reactor as sulphur reactor

[Pager880]

Hi all can a KORALLIN C1502 be converted to a sulphur denitrifier by blocking the O2 intake

 

[Sean Clark]

Yes the c1502 can be converted to function as a s1502.
I run a s1502 on my system with a c1502 top lid to allow monitoring with an ORP probe.

Thanks ...just info I needed..

Do u no what probe will fit ...as loads of sizes

Any standard pH probe will fit. I believe they are 12mm in diameter.

I should add that I am using a BRS probe which has a plastic outer cover. I wouldn't use an all glass probe as it could brake more easily.

Any media reactor/carx can work. Not sure why you need a probe.
I run mine with no recirculating pump. I just pull water through the reactor with a Kamoer pump and adjust the effluent with the same. Simple and very effective.

IV tried I simple one like that it never worked for me ....and I want a orp probe so I can see when I'm in the perfect zone ..via .the pH port on the korallin c1502...lid ...

Orp has nothing to do with a nitrate reactor. It is used on an ozone reactor or running ozone through your skimmer. I use one to turn my ozone on and off and I only run it for 4-5 hours a day.
I took my ozone reactor offline as it was not needed 24/7. Check my build thread.
So I'm not sure why you think you need one unless you just want to see what your orp level is.
I like to keep orp at around 400 but you can not control it unless you are injecting ozone into your system somewhere.

Like I said before any media reactor will and does work

The deltec no3 reactor is simple to run and will keep no3 at whatever level you want. It is just a media reactor pulling water through the sulfer media.

Do some more research before setting one up as they are very simple to run if you don't over complicate the process.

Ok so orp not needed....don't be who told me..think it was on a forums in UK . That it is near on impossible to assist me as no way or knowing the orp inside the reactor...but if not needed then I will take that advice .....I'm using a korallin c1502. ..

Cool. Asked Randy on your other thread to chime in. Maybe the other person can explain also.

Think I just found an old post . Of your set up do u still use the korallin c1501...sulphur reactor...as that's what I'm using now

Sorry buddy just read back through thread and you do ...sorry but talked to so many people .I'm confusing myself ......

How large is your tank and how much are nitrates now ?

How large is your tank and how much are nitrates now ?

Tank is 150g's. No3 is holding at 5 for several weeks now. My range is <5 which was down from 40+.

 

[DEGREGORIIS]

How much sulphur you use and at what feeding flow ? Did you see improvement within the corals ? Thanks .

I run around 1 liter of sulfer. My Kamoer is currently set at 22mlm.
Colors are better at no3< 5 than they were ar 40+.
