I am actually going away from calcium reactor to balling salts. I might regret it going to keep the reactor and set up in case but want to try something different. My biggest thing is with magnesium never know how much mag to put in the reactor. We will see I love the simplicity of the reactor, hate the hassle of dealing with geting co2 not super hand with the store hours and the hours I work.

Mine is for a 50g sps/clam tank and I even upgraded a size. Several companies, including Lifereef mentioned above, make nano reactors also.

I never found co2 a problem before. The place Im going here is a lease on a 20# and when empty just take it back and get another. Several of our sponsors sell reactors also, plus gauges, etc

Calcium reactors are way too old school.
Hassle free once set, top up the media every so often and clean the probe. I'll stick with it, dosers are too technical for me.
