im so sick of dosing and half the time im dosing the wrong amounts. i want to try and get my params as stable as possible without me having to worry about it all the time. I was looking around for some calcium reactors but i dont want to spend hundred of $'s. Any recommendations on calcium reactors that run from anywhere from $100-$175? also, i'm looking for something small, not too large so i can fit it under my stand. I have about 16x8'' of space

Please keep in mind the requirements you put forth, inexpensive, small footprint, inexpensive!! This would not be my first choice of Ca Reactors if the budget were more. Coralife Ca Reactor up to 250g Hope this helps.....LMK if we can get this for you. Russ

That's the one. After that the prices go to the level you said you didn't want to go with. That reactor will work, I just need to qualify the recommendation. Russ

Russ always to the rescue..he has a point though man you get what you pay for most of the time and you'd be better off spending a little more to get a better quality product. | ||||

u get what u pay for, don't go cheap on any equipment u buy for your precious reef. In my opinion Geo ca reactors are one of the best ca reactors out there why *easy to use, greatly built, awesome customer support, and the geo 612 is small enough to fit inside your stand, not that expensive and i'll say again easy to use oh and its super quiet. Saltwatercriters carry them!

MTC and you can find complete packages used for half or less then what they cost new. personally after alot of reading i decided on a dual chamber reactor i personally went with a mtc mini cal pro and got a good deal used on mine and have pieced the rest of the equipt from there

On this same line... How do you guys feel about a calcium reactor for a nano sps tank? Polandspring... What about getting a few dosing pumps? You could get this setup for about 200 (dosers only)
