Does anyone know, what's the risk of H2S gas being released from a sulfur reactor?

Correct me if I'm wrong here people. If you have a Cal Reactor then you can add half the sulfur and half the arm media or what ever you use for the reactor that you have right.

You could convert the reactor yes, but not use it as both. They are similar, but the denitrator does not need C02 injection.

There is this risk. BUT Apparently it only happens if the main circulation pump stops circulating and goes un-noticed.

I am seriously considering going this route on my tank as well. I'm going to go with a different reactor though.. These guys have a good reputation:
