This would be a great reactor for that size tank. This is an absolute steal. There are some great resources for reactors just do some google searching and will get plenty of hits.

Did Pete make this?
Do you have the tubing pieces that are currently not hooked up?
Thanks,

I have the input tubing and some output tubing which is only 1/4" ice maker tubing available from HomeDepot.
This is a link to a great article on how to set up a calcium reactor

I believe it was made by SeaMonkey

yeah, pretty sweet but having this dual system (with only wanting to use the 1 chamber) and another reactor for phosban or carbon along with my planned top off tank gives me not much space under my stand..........

This is a good reactor. It is an EXACT copy of the reactor I ran on my old system. Pete copied it.
Mine was made in Georgia...can't remember the name of the company.
I ran it on a 90g with no problems, then on my 300g system. It could probably handle up to 700g sps.
This is a steal of a deal.

bozack, easy solution, plug the left chamber from the inside and use it for phos. reactor and the right for ca.
easy fix and if you upgrade turn it back to a dual
easy fix I think

Never thought of doing that but I don't see any reason why you couldn't.
