  4. calcium reactor question?

    Can anybody tell me the purpose of having the soilonoid with your CO2 guage for a calcium reactor, and is it necessary? I am getting ready to buy a calcium reactor and I was wondering if I could get by with just buying a cheap guage set, without that expensive solonoid. Thanks, speedy
