    Reactor Setup Help - Korallin C1502 Low KH

    Yes, we do feed the reactor with an aqualifter pump. Regarding how much to spend for a pH meter or controller; as much as is necessary, but no more than is needed..... It looks like most basic units fall between $80 - $220. I'm open for recommendations! Another thing I am trying to solve...

    Reactor Setup Help - Korallin C1502 Low KH

    Thanks everyone for your help! I can see I need to be able to accurately measure the pH at the output of the Korallin C-1502. In shopping pH equipment I find both pH meters and pH controllers. The C-1502 has the option of a pH probe compatible lid for use with a controller. Would any of you...

    Reactor Setup Help - Korallin C1502 Low KH

    Thank you for your reply and information. Two things from your reply caught my attention. 1- I've moved the Reactor output to the return chamber of our refugium (harder to count the drips but makes more sense to drip Ca here) 2- I will order some ARM course media and re-start my testing. I...

    Reactor Setup Help - Korallin C1502 Low KH

    Thank you for your help! We've recently installed a Korallin C1502 reactor ssystem into our 120g hard coral/soft coral/fish reef tank and are having problems maintaining correct KH and Ca. We are using Knop 1.8 - 2.5mm KORALlith media. Our reactor drip rate was originally 40 dpm, but I have...
