[quote=martym;371726]I have too much Co2 in my water. It is keeping the PH around 7.8-8.02.
I do have a Cal reactor hooked up to this system, but it rarely comes on due to the low Ph. I have it set to come on at 8.01 and off at 8

marty why would you set the reactor to come on at 8.01 and off at 8?

What kinda Ca rx do you run, how many lines feed back to your tank?

My Ca rx has 2 lines back to the tank however I only use 1. It goes into a plastic cup where the pinpoint moniter sits. I have set my Ca rx to come on at 6.8 and off at 6.5, maybe I didnt read it correct from above but if you set your reactor at 8ish it wont melt the calcium, anyhow just get a plastic cup that you can zap strap to your return line submerge the monitor in that and set your ph to the same setting I have above then the return line to drip into the cup at a rate of 2 or 1 per sec. By that rate the drips falling into your tank will evap some of the ph and it flows at such a slow rate that the ph in your tank should hold 8 if it doesn't then you can try to put some ph up or kalk drip but you shouldn't need to before I had a stream of effulent into my tank I noticed the ph drop to 7.8 now with the slower drips it stays at 8 or just abit above gl.
