Taking DOWN calcium reactor : USELESS

[mehaffydr]

Your right it’s useless tell me where you live and I’ll come pick it up

How big is your tank?
How old is it?
Can you post a full tank shot so we can see what you have in terms of coral?

I'll send more photos it's dark. Redsea reefer 525 xl 140gal

Lol. The reactor is not going to work for you if you have no corals to consume the alk. You got way ahead of yourself on buying the best gear. Which is cool. Perhaps just run the water through it, without any CO2 until you have the demand for it. If your alk is 15, I highly doubt your ph is 7.5 calibrate your probe. With carbon doser and a nice peristaltic pump you can dial the reactor to a very low level, but if you barely have any acros or coraline it is useless for now.

Your tank look very young. I would say 3 months or less?

Before you adopted a calcium reactor on your system, what was your daily Alk consumption? What type of coral are you keeping? How old is your tank?

Are all these corals recently added? The glue looking fresh.
