| I actually use Calcium & a Kalk Reactor. They are both controlled by a Aqua Controller II. _________ Your #1 Source for Fauna Marin, GHL/Profilux, ZEOvit & Hagen Products!

| Well I have to say.. I've had this Precision Marine 422 for a week or two now and I am in love. It's really easy to adjust (especially with a Reef Fanatic pH controller) and my water quality is right on the mark now. Before I always had problems with alk and calcium and pH. Now everything is stable. Last test was 4 meq/L alk, 400 calcium and 8 plus pH.  I highly recommend them! |
