cal reactor/kalk reactor

[levi83]

Could I run my effluent from my calcium reactor through a kalkwasser reactor before it goes in my tank? Wouldn’t it raise the ph of the effluent or would the two react and cause something to precipitate out?

A calcium reactor circulates your tanks saltwater through it. Kalk reactors require freshwater. To put it simply, you can not run saltwater through Kalk as it will precipitate and mess up your tanks chemistry.

Thank you. That’s exactly what I was wondering. It seemed too good to be true.
