Korallin C1502 calcium reactor

[TexasState]

I brought one of these units (1502) I kept it for a week and sold it. I tried everything to get the unit to work with no luck.

What method did you use to feed the Korallin reactor? Gravity from the main tank, suction from the sump? Pump?

I think Troy bought Vinh's Korallin reactor; he loves it. I've heard good thing s about them and PM reactors. But, if you can wait a a bit, I would advise you to take the next MACO DIY calcium reactor course. I did, and my finished reactor is terrific. Plus, you really learn about working with acrylic, which in this hobby is useful.

My ReefCreation dual calcium reactor with blue line reg and built in bubble counter also includes maxijet 400 powerhead (mention and ehiem) but a mag pump is the main supplier. fill with media and a 5 or 15 pound tank $300.00

the korallin calcium reactor takes about 7 to 9 days to break in. the situation is that the valve it comes with has an oil residue on the metal that needs to work out. I have been told that this residue will never make it into the water. Start it out at 6 bubbles per minute then adjust daily for one week. After that, adjust according to your load.

LOL, yeah, I was wondering what the deal was when I got an email notification for a response to this thread. Couldn't remember when I ever posted anything on this!

Wow, this is an old thread! If anyone is interested, I have the 3002 unit and finally did get it adjusted - but it took some "ignoring" of the instructions!
