I've had 2 milwaukee's junk really but the price is almost half of the others. I hear good things about reef fanatic.

I just picked up a Reef Fanatic regulator set up from BRS when we did the group buy. I bought it because I heard and read good things about them.

I have the Milwaukee regulator, and the regulator itself is fine. Its the fact that the bubble counter is mounted directly to the solenoid. This lets water come into contact with the valve, which eventually corrodes. i removed the bubble counter and factory needle valve and made a remote bubble counter and put a new needle valve right off the solenoid. This solved all the problems. My reactor is a DIY unit and i run the large Gen X media. It holds close to 35lbs of media with room for Zeo mag on top. I would suggest the 20lb bottle if you have the room for it.

I have a korallin c-3002 in about 250 gal for the system. I run water through it very slowly, a fast drip and the ca stays at 410-430. It uses an eheim pump, I've always liked them, last forever.

Well I pulled the trigger today and bought the dual chamber Octo, Reef Fanatic regulator and ARM media. Thanks for the tips guys.

I'm sure there will be plenty of questions in the near future.
