Turboflotor/Calcium Reactor

[Boba]

I was wondering if fellow Turboflotor users actually get a dry foam in the collection cup or just the tea colored liquid that drips off the lid as the foam that sticks to the lid dissolves?
Also I am eagerly awaiting a Dual Compact/Econo calcium reactor from Coralhound and was hoping that other owners might share their experiences (good or bad).
Thanks!!!

Dry foam? hmm, isn't that an oxymoron?

Sorry..

I've got the Turbofloater 5000 (the 4' one), running on my 240g system, and most of the time I've got foam filling about half the collection cup. The color of the gunk is coffee, not tea colored. Are you using an ozonizer? I know that will lighten the skimmate color.

I'm curious, did you look at the Aquamedic CA reactor? I've got one, and again, very pleased.
