I love avast marine products!!

SchnitzelReef · Jun 30, 2016

Can't say enough how great avast marine has been! I now have their swabbie neck cleaner, ATO, and one of their media reactors. Great customer support and great quality. Love being able to support a made in America company!!

The swabbie has worked great on my bubble King skimmer. Has really increased skimmate production.

The avast ATO is connected to my apex, and it has made my life so much easier. I had a Tunze ATO before, and because of my gravity fed ATO, it would constantly not work right.

My most recent purchase was the media reactor. I emailed avast and explained to them I wanted to use it as a second chamber for my calcium reactor, and I got a quick response saying they would add 1/4" john guest fittings, so I could pour in media and hook it right up. Makes my life so much easier!
Just got it hooked up to my calcium reactor, and just like their other products, it's working great!

Really helps scrub any excess co2 out of the water before it hits the tank.

Thx for write up. I'm saving up for a couple of the spyglass reactors. Glad to hear company is taking care of you.

Avast is awesome! Awesome products,Awesome customer service! I've had a Pegleg skimmer for a few years(bought it when they first put them out) and it blows the doors off a similarly sized Vertex I have on another tank.Justin is great, you have a problem, he makes it right.I can't wait to try the Spyglass reactors,no more thumbscrews!

Customer service is top notch, just waiting for them to release their new calcium reactor.

Have you noticed any measurable difference since you added the second chamber to your CaRx?

I had a DIY second chamber already, it just wasn't as cool, or as big.

I haven't noticed a difference yet, but not sure if I will. Even though it was small, it still worked the same.

Dan and Justin's customer service is literally what pushed me to try more of their products. The first product I purchased just happened not to work with how I had planned, no questions asked they sent me a return label, and I had the money back within a couple days. Of course their products are top notch. Build quality is great.

Yep. Same experience here.

Looks like I was wrong. After a couple days, I started noticing the PH in my tank was consistently higher then it has been. Just checked my graph on the apex, and I was right. After installing the new avast second chamber, the PH has been much more stable.

Always enjoyed the products I purchase from them as well. Reactors, Swabbie and the like are great. Their new style reactor is very interesting as well.

Dang, you are talking me into doing the same thing.

How much higher? .1 or .2?
