Pulling water through GEO Calcium Reactor with peristaltic pump

[JordanM]

I am setting up my Geo 612x2 currently and will be pulling the water through the reactor. I just want to make sure I am plumbing this correctly. So the feed line (black) will be inserted into the top of the tank and pulls water down into the main feed tube of the reactor, which is opposite the CO2 input (white). Then I have the tube that comes out the top of the reactor (blue) that enters the input on the FXSTP peristaltic pump which then pushes the water back up to the tank to complete the cycle. Does this all sound correct?

Also, I would like to use the probe holder to secure both of these input and output lines. This puts them within 3" of one another. Is this an issue to have the input sucking so close to the output?

How’s it going. I have the same reactor/pump as you and having trouble finding correct set up info on it how’s yours working out? Any pics of the set up you don’t mind sharing?

Sounds right to me.
