I bought the 2 part kit with 2 dosers from BRS. I have it installed and my parameters are dialed in. Dead solid every day for the past 2 weeks.

I am dosing 60ml per day of Alk and Cal.

cal 450
Kh 8.5
Mag 1350
P04 0.03-0.06

These are levels I can live with. Colors are very nice.

Thanks for all of the input and recommendations. I will update pictures soon and update dosage changes as the occur.

i used my geo 618 for two years ran off a rio 600 for feed. on my 220 sps dominated my ph never dropped below 8.2 ,never had any clogging issues. corals grew like weeds. i am putting the same reactor on my 200 and i plan on getting a carbon doser bubble meter and hoping it will be even more set and forget. plan on using a kalk king reactor along with it down the line.
 
Hey Nate, I looked at the 618. If I go back to a calcium reactor I am going to use it with a peristalic pump probably a 50ml per minute set up. This way there will be virtual zero clogging. I might need to install a flush line on the effluent line.
