Effluent into skimmer?Where?

[cnaegler]

Hey guys.I've got a question about my calcium reactor. I've read in many places that you can run the effluent from the calcium reactor into your skimmer and that will keep the PH from dropping to the obviously low PH of the effluent because the skimmer "blows" off the extra CO2 . Question is WHERE exactly do i run it into the skimmer because mine does not have a place for it. FYI it's a CPR Bakpak. Could i drill and tap a place for it in the "bubble chamber"? I'm assuming that would be the logical place to "blow" off extra CO2. Am i correct? Can anyone elaborate?THANKS!

a properly setup reactor shouldn't have enough excessive CO2 to depress the tanks pH much at all. just drip the effluent near the feed pump to the skimmer there is no need to have it drip directly in it.
