How big is your calcium reactor?

[EnderG60]

Im going to make myself a new calcium reactor, and I want to make sure its big enough to grow into. My display is a 300g, with a 100g fuge and 2 40g frag tanks. Its a mixed reef that will eventually be packed with all kinds of corals.

I was thinking a camber large enough for 2 gallons of ARM should work, but I want to make sure.

So my question to you is, how big is your system, and what size reactor is on it? How much ARM do you go through and how often do you refill it? and how long does your CO2 last?

I am building calcium reactor and total volume is 1.7 gal for 100g system.

Look in the For Sale forums might be cheaper to just buy a used calcium reacter.

Na I have the whole setup, the reactor itself is just kinda crappy so I want to rebuild it anyway. Plus im making a few other things at the same time.

Post some pics of your diy calcium reacter build. I have a Deltek PF 601 and happy with it. What pump are you planning on using as this is this is the first thing that can break.
