kalk reactor or calcium reactor

Kalk is fine if you have a light demand for alk. But if your looking at getting into Stoney corals calcium reactor is the way to go.

^what he said. Kalk is fine for softies and light lps, but is only good enough for supplement on sps system.

Unless it's a large tank (180+) I would recommend against a calcium reactor. I have a kalk stirrer and use 2 part along side with it. I like the added benefit of raised ph due to dosing kalk.

I have a 120 gallon SPS heavy and my CA reactor rocks. My pH is always between 8.2 and 8.5 and I get awesome growth keeping my alk between 7 and 8.
