so what are you saying, I got to build 2? :mrgreen:

Go see Japato's reactor. Works great, costs about nothing to make.

You guys really don't need pictures, although I could try to post some tonight for you when I get home.

You have a tube where you put media. You have a flange up at the top. Two ports on the flange, one for input one for output. The input goes down a tube to the bottom. You have a plate at the top and the bottom to prevent media from exiting. Basically a round piece of plastic or acrylic with many little holes drilled in it so water can still flow through.

If you've ever seen an upflow calcium reactor ... same thing, just without the recirc plumbing.

"Simple as cake. Piece of pie."

so there is no shaped bottom on it to direct the flow reversal? I am looking at building a fluidized Ca reactor (a daltec copy) and it uses a inverted funnel in the bottom to redistribute the flow up wards. OK to simple then.

well since he never got back with me i called j & l and they have them in stock for 55 bucks so it isnt that good of a deal. i think id rather pay 10 bucks more and get a new one.

Good. You do that. I don't see how it belongs in Robert's thread. As always in these posts, make an offer to the seller, or stay out of it. Thanks.

Wendel has one at Ocean Aquatics. Not sure how much though.

Robert doesn't need to know where to buy one, he's selling two. Please keep the buy/sell threads on track. Thanks

Thanks Brad.

i was posting it for the benefit of everyone else who sounded like they wanted one. obviously he has sold these two so whats the problem?
