Bubble magus calcium reactor?

[lastduke]

any one has the experience with their calcium reactor? I have a doser, and dosing fine, but never tried the CA reactor. is bubble magus reactor working well with your tank?

I have heard they work very well. When I am ready, I will more then likely be trying one. The BM skimmer I got is pretty nice for sure!

yeah, i have curve skimmer and like their products as well. I googled the review of their ca reactor, didn't see any informational review.

The calcium reactor worked but it did not work well in my opinion. It recirculated the co2 so it uses co2 efficiently. The problem was it was noisy. You heard the bubbles being chopped up. The effluent line clogged in about 2 weeks.Also the atman pump used had some major flaws. First it ran extremely hot and it failed on me at 11 months. I had to go through proline aquatics for warranty repair. Problem with the design is part of the plumbing is permanently glued so you can't just change the pump. You have to get the calcium return pump assembly. They didn't have it In stock so I just forgot about it and quit using it all together . I would not recommend it. I now use a pro call mini reactor and it's great. I would also recommend a geo.

ecvernon,
Thank you for the heads up! At least your honest about it. Many guys "THINK" what they have is always the best! Nice to have a unbiased opinion!
I hear the Geo's are great as well! Thanks!
