I would like to hear from experienced members what they believe would be the best Calcium Reactor for a 200 gallon reef tank?
 
My advice is learn how to use kalkwasser effectively and then get a reactor if you can't keep up with the demands.
I wouldn't try with the kalk slurry stuff that is trending a bit, just kalk in your evaporation replacement.

Calcium reactors are always more trouble than they are worth for me.

Thank You
 
I use for years the Octopus SRO 5000, but my system is bigger than yours.
There's a 3000 model that would fit to your system.
 
I have a 240gal using a GeosReef CR16X2.
 
I'm using a reef octopus cr140. I added a second chamber but I also run a km-200 kalkwasser reactor. I love running them in tandem as they counter balance the pH effects from each.
I have a 320 gallon display on a 500 total gallon system.
