Korallin C1502 calcium reactor HELP!

That hole has the PH probe in it on mine.

Cool makes sence!

How often do you recalabrate your probe?

 

[GregAW]

There is a solution you buy to do that. Check Marine Depot

Lol I know that silly! How often do you calabrate your ph probe? I try and do the one on my 180 every few mths!

A ph probe

I just got a korallin ca reactor (actually the denitriter with the conversion kit) used, new.

Does anyone know what size the PH probe holder is? I know it's a cable strain relief, I've used them at work. Just need to know the right size to order.

Also, I need the tank/regulator. Is the marine depot package pretty good?

What's the deal with the dosing pump? It sounds like a lot of people run them but they are not necessary? It looks like some use liter meter, Some with a 100% duty cycle peristaltic. What up with that?

Hi, I have a Korallin C1502. The instructions say "The effluent drip should be about 40 drips/min and the CO2 at 10 bubbles/min"
So, valve 2 (the one in the middle) should be closed? And the valve 1 (effluent) should drip at 40 drips a minute and CO2 should be set at 10 bubbles a minute?
When I set mine to do this it leaks all over the place???
I am trying to run the Korallin reactor from a Maxijet 500 pump which has a T joint that is also running a Cheato Reactor.
The only way I can stop the reactor from leaking is by opening both Valves to the point where both outlets are running as a trickle not a drip, as soon as I restrict any of them...it leaks!
Can anyone help me, I have had this thing for over a year and never actually used it due to leaking problem!!

Can KORALLIN C1502 be used s a sulphur denitrifier./ Reactor by blocking the co2 input ?????
