Calcium reactor setup
 

I picked up a precision marine calcium reactor to replace my doser. I'm about to install this thing but everywhere I look online / YouTube videos it gives me different settings and they range quite a bit. Im currently dosing 220 ml or calcium and 220 ml of alk into a 350 gallon system. What would be a good starting point for bottle psi, bubble count, effluent drops etc?

Thanks in advance.

Bottle pressure is low, 10-20 psi.
Bubble count 60 per minute.
Effluent like a broken stream.

This is pretty conservative. I've never used a ph monitor.
Check your alk daily and increase the bubble count. I've never had to go above 90 bubbles per minute.
Couple other tips. Use coarse media in the main chamber. Not the fine media as it goes mushy. Consider adding a secondary chamber to offset low ph. I modified a TLF reactor and put fine media in there.

BRS has some pretty good videos on YouTube that should help to get started.

Kinda have to guess. Test. Wait 24h. Then adjust from there. Took me a week or so of tweaking to get mine dialed in.

Here's a general

Pretty much you have to guess and adjust maybe drip would be about 100 drops per minute, maybe higher depends on how much corals you have, keep the reactor ph around 6.4-6.7 depends on media
