calcium reactor question

It's been a while since I have used a calcium reactor....there are a ton of choices now.

I have been really interested geo reactors but one thing I do not like about them is they are single chambers. I have always used a dual chamber which helps with PH. Does the Geo reactor work differently to where a dual chamber is not needed? If so can someone please explain this?
 
Not familiar with geo or dual chamber i have a hydor performer 1000 works great be sure to use a controller for it i wouldnt dare try it without one thats a disaster looking to happen. Btw my hydor is a single chamber
 
Chambers are strictly for volume of material. More chambers to support larger system. Otherwise, they do not provide any additional value.

In my experience, the 2nd chamber can help to increase the pH of the first reactors effluent while reducing co2 which also helps to mitigate lower tank pH as a result of running a calcium reactor.
