Tank maintenance day

I think I could kiss the guy who invented the calcium reactor. I am without C02 at the moment and I am struggling with my cal/alk levels. I am up to 240ml of each of the kent 2 part and I can't seem to keep my alk above 8dkh for longer then an hour.

That is a scary thing....what about other options like some of the Randy Homes Farley receipies on RC?

I'm hoping this is very temporary (it's been 4 weeks since I sent my co2 bottle away) and I happened to have the 2 part in stock

Marie! I so understand and my tank is far far from yours! I am battling keeping calcium and alk up now......I guess things are growing...but I've also added a LOT of coral so they're now sucking it all back......I so badly need a calcium reactor...when do you expect your bottle back?

Now this is a bottle of co2

. No complaints from me for a day or too about running out

Thank you, Anthony and TomR for bringing it up and hooking it up for me
