I wouldn't run a Ca reactor without pH control but seems your problem is related to either your regulator, needle valve or maybe a check valve?. What pressure is the tank at compared to the regulated pressure? Is it constant? I would also consider trying a new needle valve and check valve if you're using one. To test the check valve you could run it without one and see if you get constant bubble flow. I does sound a little like a blockage somewhere in the CO2 line so be sure to check anything else that could cause restriction.

I checked both the needle and check valve, seems like the check valve has seized up. Without it, the gas is flowing quite nicely, so I'm assuming the needle valve was fine.
So I'm working on getting a new check valve for the Korallin, most likely will have to go through marine depot, as non of the LFS's carry Korallin Calcium reactors anymore. Thoughts, or alternatives to Marine Depot?
