i'll try and grab a picture of the full setup today as ive been cleaning up my room from the mess for the last like week since the move haha...IT WAS THAT MESSY!! but now its all cleaned and i only have this 30g running.
I tested my water for to see the Ca consumption rate through a day. It dropped from 400ppm to 380ppm in a day. That is with my Ca reactor running too, should i test for a few more days to see if it is a constant 20ppm drop and then increase the bubble rate inside my CA reactor to compensate for the 20ppm drop?

What i would do is bring it back up to 400 and test again in another day. if the CAl is downing that fast then youwill to get the reactor pumping more CAl Im not a Reactor expert may be Steveo,Tony, Doug, Snappy, Niloc, can explain it betterIm not that great at it...good work otherwise
try this out its takes you through a reactor set up . HTH http://home.comcast.net/~jdieck1/reactor.html

i have 4 clams in total 3 of which are fully open while one got stun by an SPS roughly a week or 2 before the move (the one in the right hand side photo) haha... but i would say that one clam is actually slowly recovering then dying soo so hopefully it'll be good
