ATI Calcium reactor ?'s

[Dalbery]

I'm just about to fall off the fence and buy an ATI model 2 calcium reactor set-up. I can get a new complete package including regulator, bottle, and media for under $300. I have never had a calc reactor so I really don't know what to look for in a good or bad one. I know I like ATI makes good skimmers so my train of thought is that their calc reactors shouldn't be all that bad either. Does anyone have or had one of these? Can you please tell me the good or bad on them.
Thanks,
Darrell

I never owned a ATI but, I had a buddy that had one he dis-liked it big time he changed to Geo. ATI he said was too dificult to dial in and had too many issues with it what all the issues were I idnot ask he always had a reactor for over 5 or so years and bought this one with a new build and then bought a new one. with in a couple months. I personally like my r2k or kr2 what ever one it is small perfect for my tank being under 400 gallons.
