My DIY calcium reactor
Just wanted to share some pics of my first reactor.
http://www.nacdsm.org/albums/winterb..._059.sized.jpg http://www.nacdsm.org/albums/winterb..._057.sized.jpg Built it a week or so ago, took 2 1/5 hours and works great. Holds 8 1/2lbs of media and only uses a bubble count of 10/min. The reactor ph is around 6.7 and the kh is 40. The bin of LR and coral frags has stayed steady at PH 8.3 and KH 13, the calcium is at 440ppm. Happy days, should have built one of these a long time ago. :wink: Clinton |
Is that a flowmeter on your needle valve? Where did you get that and how much was it?
|
Whoa, looks good. What size MAG are you using? You're getting handy at this DIY stuff, eh?
How much total do you think that unit cost, just the reactor? Nice work. |
Very nice... clean and professional looking.
Thats a nice size CO2 bottle, where did you get it? |
Hmmm, that assembly looks very familiar. Wonder where I have seen that model before??
:? :wink: |

I'd say you got a good deal on that CO2 bottle, and again very nice clean looking job.
