Calcium Reactor Second Stage

[Tom R]

My PH inside the main chamber of the Calcium Reactor is 6.55 and the effluent out of the Second Stage 7.38 and the System PH is 8.20. My main lights have only been on for an hour.

Really??? What's your flow-though rate (effluent rate)? I run my reactor at 6.7 and when I had two stages the second stage was emitting 6.7 as well. Although come to think of it, I think for the first week or so it was higher, but it was after several days that the second stage came down. That was at 60ml/min, so I guess it was just a case of the slow flowrate took a while for the second stage to fill up with the lower pH water.

My effluent is flowing at a rate of 100 ml per minute.

I will watch the levels over the next week and post the levels 1 week from now.
