Sweet setup. A lot of thought. In the past I have used the ZEOVit Mag suppliment for your CA Reactor. the garanual sizes are huge and work well with large CA media. You might want to check that out.

Wow, cool rig. Thanks for sharing! Especially impressive is the results, the theory behind it is one thing, but seeing effluent change from 6.5 to 7.8 is .. well .. it really says it all, doesn't it?

Nice work, I added an effuent chamber from an old Red Sea Merlin fluidized bed but it's a real PITA to refill, your recirc mod looks way better. Are you using ARM for your CA media?
