Some update till my calccium reactor addittion
it's made about 3 week since I have stop my kalkwasser reactor and only use calcium reactor
my alk is now at 11dkh steady and the calcium is 420 but the PH run very very low 7.95-8.07
Everiting seem to be realy find and still grow well but to early to say one grow more than another
the biggest draw back from now is valonia I alway have them since 7-8 years but they have alway be slow grower and mostly alway covert with
coraline and small in number. I have alway let them grow as divesity but now they seem to realy speed up there grow and came big prety fast. They have also lost most coraline over them and are now shiny green and seem to be in a realy good shape :x
If valonia grow I tink any other algea could stard to grow either and Im a bit afraid to have a algea bloom even if no sign of it are in the tank right now I have the feeling someting bad is preparing :?
the bigest benefit of the cacium reactor over the kalk reactor is that it is realy trouble free set it and forget but it maybe have sone draw back that I have not yet fix and maybe the best way to solve the draw back will be to grow macro algea in the sump cause I dont have any macro in this
setup and need to find someting that will eat that CO2
