I am having some concerns that I may not be installing the CA reactor assembly properly. Presently, I have the Pax Bellum N18 algae reactor hooked up to a Geo 618 calcium reactor with a 415 secondary media chamber.
I have the output of my secondary media chamber feeding into the low pressure side of the CA reactor assembly. I have a drip counter to measure the CA reactor output drip before it enters the low side of the CA reactor assembly.
The weird thing, and why I think something is wrong with how the reactors are set up, is that the drip counter chamber appears to completely fill up with water from the bottom, i.e., from the output side of the drip counter. The flow seems to be reverse to what it is supposed to be.
I have the smallest restriction disk installed in the assembly. The reactors are fed off of a dedicated manifold powered by a Varios-2 pump running at 100%. (The CO2 tank is not yet hooked up.)
In a nutshell, I suspect how I have my reactors set up does not seem to be working. Does anyone have any guidance regarding what may be wrong?
