Doug, I sometime's think the same thing that you mentioned but since installing my reactor my tank has actually become enjoyable.. It's been about 6 month's now since the reactor has been up and it gives me so much more time to spend with my "growing" family as well as more time enjoying my tank. I found that kalk would not even come close to keeping up with my tank's demands and this was like a year ago before my tank was full of sps.
It's quite astonishing how much calcium/alk the other stuff, besides corals, consume
Yea for reactors!
