Default Calcium reactors

Any thoughts on which is a good Ca reactor to buy? and a controller too?

I am looking for ease of use, simple to install, easy to maintain and reliable

How large is your system and what are you planning on keeping for corals?

my system right now is about 80 gallons total, with a mix of stony and soft. future tank size I am unsure of, so I do want it capable of 200+ gallons. I am also looking at getting rid of most my soft corals (they are acting like a plaque). Currently I am having problems maintaining high calcium levels

thanx

I recommend the Austin Oceans calcium reactor.

It is available from the U.S. however our dollar is worth more now.

The advantages of this reactor are:

Dual chamber upflow design
CO2 scavenging
Built-in CO2 bubble counter
Built-in flow meter
Feed pump not required
No connections through the acrylic tubing, only through the ends
Built-in port for pH monitor

I bought one a few months ago, it is easy to use.
