I have had my calcium reactor running for a week now. I recently upgrade a few parts. I bought a lid with a PH probe adapter and a PH controller. I am going to use the PH monitor to monitor the tanks PH. When I added the PH controller probe into the lid it reads that the PH inside the reactor is significantly lower than the PH inside the drip cup. I found this out by getting rid of the water in the drip cup and let the drip cup fill up again. I even took both PH probes and put them together into the drip cup and got the same PH.
Manufacture recommends the PH in the reactor stay between 6.5 and 7.0. With a drip rate of 40 and 10 Bubbles per minute, The PH in the reactor is reading somewhere around 6.2.
For those who run a calcium reactor what PH settings do you have your controller set for?
