So I just got a Clearwater Algae scrubber and I also have a calcium reactor. Would there be any benefit in running the calcium reactor effluent directly into the scrubber? Better gas exchange which would mean a higher pH? Benefit for the algae that would grow?

I know some algae reactors do this like the Pax Bellum Calcium reactor injection kits, but this is turf algae and not macro. Hopefully they aren’t too different and I could do that with the CW.
 
All plants and algae utilize CO2 therefore I don't see a reason it wouldn't work and what I'd be doing if I used a calcium reactor (technically alkalinity).
