I was going through a 20 pound bottle of co2 in just over a month before cost was 28 to fill plus the hassle of two trips to the place that did it. I kept my reactor in case this doesn't pan out but we will see.
Thanks. But wow, that is a lot of C02 in a month... But you do have a large system.

I dose alk and Ca, and just recently had to start doing Mg as well. My dosing costs keep rising as my SPS grows, but for now, still a lot less than your new TM method, even when extrapolated down to my size system. But I acknowledge there may be other benefits, too.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.
