Calcium Reactors

Hi Trigger,

when choosing a Ca reactor make sure it comes with these features:

- automatic de-gassing (not manually with your hand) OR

- reintroduction of excess gas (de-gassing is not required anymore)

- 100% CO2 usage

- Gas separator (to avoid gas going back in your tank)

- High water current in the reactor to avoid “mud” buildup

- Performance diagram: Amount CO2 / Waterthroughput / KH value (this one is very important)

I’m using a Schuran Pico at this point of time. The performance is great with the lowest CO2 usage I saw.

If you want to invest a bit more, go for the next bigger model (Jetstream 1) as it comes with pH electrode holder to authomize the CO2 addition to the reactor.

Hope this helps.
