DIY Ca reactor

Nice!

 

still waiting for the order of cement to come in but in the meantime heres some pics. if the store is open i hope to get some tomorrow.

the first pic is the start of one of the recirc maxijet pumps

in the second pic there are 3 tee's on the intake side of the pump: from top to bottom the pH probe, sump and CO2. the intake for the main pump connects to the top of the reactor.

the output from the main pump is on the bottom side of the reactor. the other connector on top of the reactor will go to the second chamber.

the main pump lines are 1". the lines from chamber to chamber are 3/4". the recirc lines are 1/2".

 

:laughings That Linda is so funny. I feel ya, sometimes these guys are talkin and I feel that I have reached www.3nasa.com instead of 3reef.

 

That looks awesome reefguru. Im a handy guy myself, so I can appreciate a good job when I see one. Kudos to you.

 

thanks, as soon as the cement is in my paws this thing will come together quick.

 

picture update, still working, will post more later

 

two more pics, progress is being made

 

Pretty impressive... That Weldon 16 is magical.

 

thanks, hopefully there wont be any CO2 left over at the last chamber, lol.
