I'm loving this new calcium reactor. Was worried I would wake up with a puddle under neath my stand, but there wasn't one leak. After setting up a few different calcium reactors, this one was by far the easiest. The design is so simple, and it works great. Not sure why other companies have made calcium reactors so complex. Geo for the win!!

You balancing with macro or mangroves? Also the water changes should be done precisely the same every 2-3 weeks or every week. If you treat your tank like a pristine ocean it yields exactly that. None of the additives are important if you don't put it on a doser ime. Water changes good equipment and good food is all you ever need.

Been super busy, triple the work load from other years thank goodness. Economy is turning. No thought of setting up the 90 in storage as of yet. Cause I know I'll be addicted again.

Tried this stuff last night. I have no idea what it does exactly, but I woke up this morning and my skimmer was full of crud. I emptied it last night. Pretty amazing. It wasn't just clear tea skimmate, it was thick gunky stuff. It put my skimmer into overdrive. Supposed to help with cyano

I've had a break out box sitting in my tank cabinet for a couple years. Was always intimidated to set it up. Figured it would be a head ache. Now that I've set up my BOB on my Mixing station, it's actually really easy and very nice knowing where the float switches are at. This weekend I plan on setting it up on my display. That way I will now get alerts if my sump is low or if the water gets too high. I'll be using dual float switches.
