    need volunteer for the conceptional CA reactor

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I designed a new CA reactor, the prototype is fabricated, now I need a volunteer who is familiar with traditional calcium reactor, please contact me if you are interested and accept the terms as following:

     

    1. the product patent is submitted but not approved yet. the tester is willing to have a confidential agreement with me and not release any design detail to the third party until it is released by inventor. 

    2. the tester is familiar with traditional calcium reactor and have a reactor at a running aquarium to make the comparison. 

    3. the tester has a sump and enough space in the cabinet (less footprint than traditional ca reactor)

    4. the tester is willing to document the detail results, data, perform frequent chemical tests

    5. the tester is willing to communicate with me for test progress and provide the updates in time.

     

    additional requirements but not necessary:

    1. close to my home address, beaverton 97229 area

    2. I can visit the testing tank or testing environment. 

     

    what I will provide:

    - the prototype and necessary accessories, tester can keep the prototype after the testing if desired 

    - testing kits

    - reactor media

     

    pro and cons of the design

    Pros:
    - small foot print, space saver

    - easy to adjust

    - no concern on media debris 

    - more tolerant to oscillation of CO2 pressure, may not require an expensive regulator ( this needs to be tested)

    Cons:

    - need to position higher than aquarium water level or sump water level

    - could waste 2-5% CO2 (this needs to be tested, may not be the case due to the new diffuser design)

    - two to three small pumps will be required rather than a big recirculation pump comparing to the traditional design. More spots will be taken for APEX :)

     

    It is not first come first service thing, I will leave this ad for a week and pick a tester who meets most above requirements. It is fun to test the new toy, isn't it? 

     

    without you guys help, OceanRevive couldn't starts up, i promise i will offer a big discount to local club members if this product can be commercialized.

    Reactor or dosing?

    in Equipment

    just correcting myself, i meant the traditional reactor has a unstable pressure inside the reactor due to the CO2 dissolution and recirculation pump drift. That forces us to purchase an expensive regulator to compensate the various pressure in the reactor. The new design will have a stable pressure at both upstream and downstream of the regulator. so the regulator doesn't have to be that "smart".

    Do you have a proof of concept or is this something completely new you've come up with? Let me know if you have a cad drawing or something similar and I might be able to help you with getting that prototype built.

     

    It is a completely new design. The traditional reactor has the problem to maintain the stable output due to the unstable pressure inside of reactor chamber. I am going to open it up....then you don't need a $200 regulator as the reactor chamber will be ambient pressure. i don't want to hijack this thread, i will open up another thread once my prototype is under the test. I have try the concept, it works.

    I have a new design of CA reactor, I call it new school reactor. much easier to maintain and adjust. Plus, it is space saver! i am looking for a manufactuer to fabricate a prototype. Do you want to try once I have the prototype?:O

    Cure your ICH fish! free to try the new product

    in General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by OceanRevive

    I have a new patterned product to isolate and cure the ichy fish. The fundamental idea tank transfer which has been proven in this hobby for a long time. The patterned product makes this process much easier, you dont need two tanks, you don't need to change 30times water, There is only one or two boxes, hang it in your quarantine or display tank to cure the ichy fish.

     

    I have tried it during the development phase. it worked great to cure the fish. however, I couldn't get a ichy fish from Jeff at cuttlefishandcorals (this is not an advertisement for him...), it makes more sense to have a hobbist to try this new product and help me document the successful stories.

     

    I am looking for whoever is interested in curing your ichy fish in your tank and help me write a product review. Please contact me here or bo.wang@oceanrevivellc.com to pick up the product and have a chat how to use it.  

     

    thanks

    Sorry guys, due to the second baby, I check here much less. At this time, CC is the only store u can get the OR lights. We are guiding our internet customers to our local resellers. That will be a win win situation. Occasionally, the customer is directly buying from us if doesn't know where to find the local shop.
