i have a 200 gal mixed reef tank/ frag tank setup (leaning more towards lps) and i am using 2-part right now, things are going well but i dose quite alot daily and in the long run i will have spent more money than it would have cost to just buy a calcium reactor. so with that said i am looking for something a little more economical in the long run. i am needing some help on which ones i should be considering, based on price, reliability, and just personal exp. any help will be greatly appriciated.
 
Tough to beat the aquamaxx as the price is right, they are built well, have all the nice features, and are quiet.
 
If space is an issue, look at the Korallins. Otherwise, yeah, Geos are great. MRC also has excellent build quality.
 
ok thanks so far for the input, space is not issue, i have a inwall main display with an entire room behind for all the mad science that goes on behind the scene. any recomendations on where to purchase?
 
I had a korralin for years they can be very touchy as far as getting them going when changing out the media. I swithed to a Geo 618 very simple keeps alk an calcium levels up without any issues I have 300 gallons total water volume primarily SPS and chalices.
 
i am hearing alot of good things about geo, sounds like the right one for me. how often do you have to refill pcfish, what media do you recommened
 
I have been real happy with my Bubble Magnus the only issue was the pinch clamp ou the output that i replaced with a 2$ plastic valve

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
