We try to keep alkalinity at about 8 – 8.4 dkh. We find that is a good level for rapid growth of the corals. We use a GEO CR1218 Commercial Calcium Reactor for our aquaculture farm with a SMC 618 Secondary Chamber. Our various display tanks use either the GEO CR 818 Calcium Reactor with the GEO SMC 410 Secondary Chamber or the GEO CR612x2 Calcium Reactor combo.
We carry GEO reactors and secondary chambers for sale to our clients. Contact us at sales@lawofficeaquariums.com if you need more information.
