dimensions of CO2 tank and calcium reactor
hey all,
I am drawing up the plans for my stand and would like to factor in enough room for a c02 tanks and reactor should i decide to put one in (or get the $$)so........if you could give me the height and footprints of the tank and reactor that would be great! thanks. Sean |
my reactor was built by jon and is about 8"x8" and a little under 2' high. my tank is a 10lb, is about 5" in diameter, and around 1.5' high. i'm sure if necessary you could DIY a really compact reactor. and you could hang the tank horizontally from the top of the stand or something if necessary. the inside of my stand is about 5'x2' and comfortably hold a 4'x1'x18" sump/fuge, CO2 tank, reactor, timers, and a lot of cords, with room to spare and about 8" of clearance from the top of the tank or reactor. if i get off my lazy rear i'll take and upload some pictures.

great thanks for the info, pics would be great :mrgreen:

hmm does someone have some webspace they can lend me? that way everyone can see. ftp access would be fine, 10 megs or something along those lines?
|
If I was going to build a stand I would get Brad's plans with the side by side cabinets housing the tall items..... :cool:
|
Looking good Quinn!
Sean a reactor can be made to fit just about anywhere. |

Although I have a really tall side compartment, my reactor and CO2 tank fit under the main tank area. It is about 33" high and gives plenty of room. One of my previous posts in the DIY section showed the frame of my stand before the wood went on if you wanted to look at it. |
