Calcium reactor FS - $90 - good for 50-200 Gallon tank
Local sale only... no shipping.
I put one of my acrylic tubes to good use.
This is a homemade reactor of the identical design as I use for all my calcium reactors. Not the prettiest, but extremely reliable, and excellent at deliverying calcium and alkalinity with a minimum of headaches. The reactor does NOT come with the Eheim pump, but you can pick on up online for about $45. I use the smallest Eheim pump (extremely reliable, I've never seen one fail). This reactor is 6 inch diameter and can hold about 1.7 gallons of reactor media. I use ARM, but believe Koralith to be pretty good too.
Footprint is 18" high by about 14" long.
The reactor is water tight, but is designed to be used in a sump. Although not sold with a bubble counter if your regulator does not come with one I will throw one in for nothing. Discount of $10 if you trade in one of the 6 inch acylic tubes so I can make another reactor.

Admittedly, anybody handy with acrylic that understands the basics of calcium reactors, and has some time on their hands could build an equivalent reactor. I'm charging this $ amount for what I think my time was worth in building this reactor. This is a very sturdy reactor, that has incorporated all the improvements in design that I've learned based on 4 years of operating and building calcium reactors.
30 money back guarantee, and 1 year warantee...how's that? (wish I could spel).
