Calc Reactor...

[LarryW]

ok, So I want to keep SPS, LPS, clams and Rics in my 120. I was planning on just adding supplements during topoffs/Water changes, or when the levels are low. Lately I have been thinking about getting a Calcium reactor instead. So my question is, where do I put it, what all do I need to use it, and what else should I be thinking about? I will have room in the sump next to the skimmer. the area is 9" wide, and there will be about 6" of room or so. I can put the co2 tank somewhere, maybe next to the stand but dimensions and/or pics would be helpful.

With a 120 I think you would be way ahead to use the homemade two part recipe with a dosing pump. This is what I use on my 180 with 50gal sump and I have very good growth. The total monthly cost is under a dollar. I keep 6 clams, 2 large monti caps, and probably 30-40 various sps/lps corals.

Many people on the forum are using the 2 part with no complaints in fact most really like their growth.
