Calcium reactor questions .

[DaddyReefer13]

I am thinking about getting a calcium reactor for the 90G Mixed reef which will be SPS and LPS dominated. I have been looking into a GEO 612 but have a couple of questions.

1. I'm looking for some feedback on the Milwaukee CO2 Regulator and whether it's worth upgrading to the Reef Fantastic CO2 regulator?

2. How long would a 5lbs CO2 tank last until it needs to be refilled? (I know that this will vary from user to user)

Check these out....these are very well built....my milwaukee did not last more than a year.....

THis is also pretty cool although i dont know anyone using it yet...but i like it....

With regards to a co2 tank....there are quite a few variables but in my 210 that has a crap load of sps I have a 10 lb bottle and so far it is still going strong after six months...

Also i have found that the large arm media works very well.....

Hope this helps...:splitspin

Hi Daddy,

about the Milwaukee, i recomend that you a Milwaukee CO2 CONTROLLER. With it, you can control the pH inside the reactor.


Hi ClosetFishGeek,

i heard that ARM media releases phosphates. Atually, i?m using Deltec Media.

I heard that as well.....And i had to test the efluent....this is not true..at least with my testing...just for the record. But deltec has excellent media as well...:splitspin....The controller is a great piece of equipment for controll. This i completely agree with...
