ill be glad to use it on my tank on ur behalf

 

[ecvernon]

i think in mheavens tank he had a calcium reactor but he had a ton of SPS
i would be ok if you could slow the drip rate so it wont lower your PH too much

It all depends on demand Anthony, if at its slowest drip you can maintain good chemistry I say "Why not!"

 

[anthony27]

I will have to see, but I am starting off the bio pellets very soon and ordering the vertech reactor as we speak
