MARS DIY Calcium Reactor User Manual

:thumbsup: Brian I thought that your instructions were excellent, now I just have to make a reactor. :thumbsup:

I really like that you explained the realities of setup so well. Really great design, easy maintenance, easy setup, seems like it would be very reliable. I was going to ask you at the meeting about the probe glands but forgot. Do you have extras? If so I would like to buy one from you.

BTW, I couldn't read separate the block diagram file (could see the one in the PDF fine). Which program should I use to read it?

Thanks

I think the folks who are selling calcium reactors have to make it look like their products have no limitations. Me, I just want the easiest setup possible.

>Do you have extras?
I brought the five extra probe glands to the meeting. I'll bring them to the next meeting. They are $4 each.

Minh was commenting that Rich had just used a water tight cable strain relief as a probe gland. I could see that working. If you go that route I'd remove the plastic piece that crimps down on the cable. I'm pretty sure it would damage the pH probe. Perhaps that is what Rich did.

> I couldn't read separate the block diagram
I've been having some trouble with that download module. I'll take a look at the block diagram.
 
Brian,

I can not get to the doc. What was the GPH of the dripper you use? I know I got one that was different than what you are using, so I wanted to look at that section.

Thanks,

John
 
I am going to be using the calcium reactor on my 30g until I get the 100 running so I think the 1/2 GPH should be fine. All I have to wait for is the replacement pH probe for my controller.
