Is there a real benefit to having a Calcium reactor over just dosing?
The reactor and regulator and stuff makes it a 500-600 dollar addition to my 90 gallon (30g sump/fuge).
But I just got a softball sized pink birds nest and have some other real nice hard corals coming in over the next couple weeks and am not sure dosing can keep up I guess.
And does a calcium reactor control alk too? or do I need to dose/reactor that too?
I really should have made my stand bigger.
What other things should I know about a Calcium reactor?
I have searched and tried to find my information.
Right now I dose coral snow every couple nights, and then I dose ca and alk with my top off water so it is a steady source into the tank rather then a big dump.
