Preston,
Here is a link to setting up a Korallin calcium reactor:

Korallin and GEO probably make the most used reactors. Richard sells a brand of reactor that is like a GEO knockoff that looks pretty good (can't remember the brand, but it looks well made)
The only word of caution I have is, watch your tank pH. Especially if you have a smaller tank (less than 125 gallons). I had to setup a 2nd chamber to absorb the excess co2 from the reactor. I also use a kalk reactor in my setup; and my pH was still under 8.
You are welcome to come by and checkout my setup, sometimes seeing it work, answers a lot of questions.
