Hiya chris, I currently run two reactors,one is based on sanjays design,and ive used it with his original reverse flow design aswell.(didnt work satisfactory at higher co2 rates,due to bubbles eventually lifting media)this one is 4' X 4" diameter. The one on my display tank is based after Knops...

Chris, No offence intended to jeff, but i would have to disagree somewhat with his method. I would guess you need to raise (BPM&DPM)both somewhat,your bubble count seems way low. I presently run my reactor at 125 BPM,with an effluent of about 85 mls a minute. For a loaded 150 sps tank (some...

Congrats Anyways Reefs.org!

Ive never owned a Knop,but im sure it would be water. Co2 is probably introduced just before/at the pump intake. HTH,Marc.

Sorry to be off topic.... Davelin,i recieved an e-mail from you a while back(i think it was you?) Somehow i have deleted it and the question you had for me,and for the life of me i cannot remember what it was concerning...possible to re send one for me? I apologize once again for barging in...

Hi all, Im beggining to think that they are not all they are claimed to be, While i do agree there is benifits to them,i am wondering if they warrant a purchase of a second chamber. Since running one,ive noticed there is much less dissolving of the media in the second chamber,becuase of the...

jrodrig, Yes it can be done,but prepare yourself for awhile in the O.R.! Youll need a hacksaw or dremel...latter is better. You must remove the coral(polyp retracted)from the tank,and score the skeleton as much as possible WITHOUT cutting the polyp. Then you must break the two,with only the...

Steve, No,ive never personally tried this,but have seen the seperation portion of the exercise take place sucsessfully. There are many references to this process heres a couple, http://www.athiel.com/lib3/lpsprop.html http://www.athiel.com/lib/txtfiles/catalaprop.html There are other...
