  • Tips on cycling CaRx???

    Does anyone have any tips on cyclying the ca reactor? Do I just cycle the Co2 or the whole reactor. Or is it just trial and error? Any help would be greatly apprieciated

    Cycle your Co2 off as needed. Start by only running Co2 during the day and see if that helps. If you cut the whole reactor on and off, you will not have a consistent drip rate.

      Thanks Brian, I will try that. Is it better to cycle the reactor and keep the ph of the effluent low, more is dissolved, ans cycle it or is it better to just run the reactor at a low bubble rate and have only a small percentage dissolve?

          at a PH of 7.6 you should be leaving your CO2 in the off cycle for a while
