    Unless you have quite a bit if SPS and LPS, it is much more economical to dose 2 part or drip Kalkwasser. To set up a proper small calcium reactor will run you about $200-$500. $200 if you can find someone willing to unload everything cheap... which is unlikely.

    Here are some stuff you'll need:

    Acrylic cylinder Reaction Chamber
    Various PVC Fittings and Tubing
    Pump
    Acrylic Pieces
    Weld-On Acrylic Solvent\Glue
    CO2 Bottle
    CO2 Solenoid Valve
    pH Controller if you don't want to constantly testing the effluent
    Reactor Media
