[Budman's Corals]

Okay got a calcium reactor the other day. working great but my ph im having a problem with in the main tank
it ranged from 7.6 to 8.1 should i be concerned about these levels? it was like that b4 the reactor also....all other param are perfect
Alk 8.9 cal 440 phos .03 nit 0 temp 78 mag 1400

What should i do in order to keep it at a higher level,I dont know why it always stays low.
Thanks in Advance

Sounds like you have an aeration issue...too much C02.

Not sure if site rules allow, but here's a low PH article that talks specifically about calcium reactor usage as a typical cause and what to do about it.

Good luck!
