    I don’t know much about calcium reactors except to say that tank crashes have occurred from improper CO2 adjustments and / or pH probe calibration inaccuracies.

    Chemi Clean has cause many tank crashes. People have used Chemi Clean and not had a crash, others have had a tank crash (or many tank crashes) and do not blame the chemicals they dump in their tanks, but they still wonder why their corals died.

    Simply put, if it kills the cyano, what other biological life forms is it killing.

    Aside from the possible CO2 issue, chemicals often destroy the lower biological trophic levels that we have learned to establish in order to successfully keep corals alive in captivity for extended periods.

    We should dose elements, not chemicals in order to maintain an ionic balance and a biologically sound closed captive system.
