Dude just read the threads .. This hobby is all about research man. You can expect everyone to just spoon feed you everything.

Check out melev's website as well.He has several articles on working with acrylic,and an article by dj88 on how to build a square reactor.Heres the link.Also the article about the reactor on melev's website tells you how it works and how to go about setting it up.

The easiest one to build and the most info avail on one thread is the a day off and $200 calcium reactor, or something similar to that effect, thread.

The threads I linked will take you step by step through the build, this thread will go through setup & tuning (& how they work - they all basically the same):
