I just purchased a used Life Reef calcium reactor which came with a 10lb CO2 bottle, regulator, Milwaukee PH monitor, and Mag 7 recirculating pump for $120. This is pretty much all I know about it. It seemed like a good deal. The guy did not know much about it and it looks like it has seen better days. I do not know too much about calcium reactors myself. I have not tested it yet.
I see on the regulator, a plastic tube is cracked. Is this a bubble counter? Can it be bypassed since the reactor has one too? What goes inside the bubble counter? Can I just glue it back together? Also, how do I get rid of the brown/yellowish color on the tubes? Can anyone give me any more info on it other than what I described? I am attaching pictures.
