It's nice to know there is a calcium reactor that isn't this huge behemoth outside your sump that may be an eyesore to others (not me, of course). Great tips!

I love your videos. It is very informative and you break the mold, on the standard of how "you are supposed to do things". It is refreshing to hear you can do things in different ways to get the same results.

Thank you for the great information

Great tips Jake! I also use kalkwasser when using a calcium reactor to help elevate my tank's pH.

It’s still seems very complicated as I’m new to the hobby but at the same time trying to learn and absorb as much info as possible, thank you for the informative video

Thanks Jake, great video I use a 2 chamber cal reactor for years but found this very informative.

Absolute high end stuff from Seachem

thanks ! great video !

Thanks for the great advice!

Muchas gracias señor Adams, video espectacular.

Was actually going over this in my head trying to decide to have a reactor or dossing pump

Nice any way you coud do a look back on the aquavitro division skimmer i was wondering about the extra pump

What's the opening track? It slaps!

How did you get the or tubing quick connection on the top? I bought some to make the unit look more professional and they don't fit. Please read and respond thanks

@reefbuilders, can you share your impressions of the Zeolite reactor? It's impossible to find a review anywhere. I'd like to use it to run the zeovit method, but I'm unsure whether the bubbles are enough to clean the zeovit zeolites.

Remember your article on the big destaco , did you guys get round to adding a second dosing pump for faster flow through the reactor?. I have a large custom built reactor using the destaco hard media which I can drive down to 6 ph but struggle to get a high dkh from the reactor even if its driven with a hefty over gas at 180ml per mi, comes out at 20 to 21 dkh.. One other curiosity question, rest gasses , I only ever see this build up if I run at a serious over gas and the down time on the reactor isn't long enough over night for the reactor to de gas by itself , no doubt there are other impurities in co2 which I have heard as refered to as rest gasses that build up in a reactor but if the case why don't they become problematic above a reactor ph of 6.2 ish . Good video above , keep them coming .

Hi jake this is super informative, do you mind doing a video on C02 scrubber?

Hi Jake, what size is this calcium reactor rated for and secondly how many gallons is it feeding at your studio?

Great video Jake, what about the twin tech deltech you was running you still running it? If so which one do you prefer? Thanks in advance

For me the daunting thing with calcium reactors is less about setting them up, but more the fact that after dropping 6 bills on a calcium reactor you're not even close to ready to go, need the carbon dioxide, ok fine get a canister filled up... wait now you need a regulator and oh no better get a really good one or that overly expensive Carbon Doser one ... fine NOW I'm ready to go right? Nope now you need a feed pump, and you can't go with a cheap peristaltic pump either! Then F-it... I'm going back to 2 part, all I need is some containers to hold it, and some peristaltic pumps to dose.

Hi Jake, what is the fine media you recommend using downstream of the reactor to help reduce Ph decline? Really informative video! Thanks

Can you do some spotlight on favia/favites maybe, really enjoyed your goni/alveopora spotligt from september :D

the power supply hanging halfway out of the socket at 10:30 is triggering my OCD. Great vid, thanks for the insight! What do you think of using 2 part, calc reactor, and kalk on the same system? Would there be any benefit to using all 3? (for a 300 gallon system, using each sized for a 100 gallon system)

Great video as always, would love an update on the Nano Max one day build, still running? How have you handled it?

@5:00 Jake looks like he’s standing chest deep in water lmao

for a second there, i though jake succumbed to a hair perm. lol

How do they use so much calcium when they grow so fucking slow? The amount of calcium we supply is huge compared to the amount of skeleton laid down. Where is all of that calcium going?

Hey brother, I know the best way to counter the low ph in the aquarium due to the calcium reactor is to dose sodium or calcium hydroxide at a constant rate too (drops per minute). I do not use calcium reactors as they are unnecessary because all you need is sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide to maintain alkalinity. If you want to recreate the calcium reactors ions, all you need to mix is sodium carbonate and calcium hydroxide. I would drip it in drops per hour.

How much dkh should be dripping back into the tank? I heard more than 20 dkh on a slow drip

Nice Seachem commercial.👍
