impur Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Sean sells em, they are Sealab No. 23 calcium blocks or something like that. Worked really well for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyles Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I will keep an eye out on a reactor for ya Andy, but don't wait for me, but I do run into them from time to time. I picked mine up in Vancouver at a guy that was running a fish store in his garage. He had alot of good deals, Im just glad I only brought 200 bucks because my wife would have killed me.

andy Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 I think I may DIY one... not sure, got some bills to pay and want to make sure Santa visits this year too. Definitely let me know if you see a sweetheart deal though, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powdertang05 Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 i use kents 2 part for alk and calcium and i have 2 other frag tanks and that tank has the same or better results then my calcium reator frag tanks. i also use kalkwasser with any ro/di water replenishment. also ive used the iron based PO4 like phosban and have found that the kent sponge or seachem works the best if you dont have softies its the best it drops my po4 from like .3 to 0 like in an hour and keeps it there for a month or two i only keep it in there fro 3 days and you must i mean must rinse it alot because if you dotn the particles get into the water can cause problems just like the iron one. but other then that best stuff every used and its reusable.
