any suggestions of a good CA Reactor?

Everyone has there favorites but I really like my GEO. Its well built, easy to use and have had no problems with it. Top comes right off for refilling and goes back on easily.I liked the build so much I bought his Kalk and Media reactors also. The one time I did have a problem George took care of it right away.

+1 for GEO, quality products

I have nothing bad to say about my GEO 618. Great product, now the Milwaukee controller has left quite a bit to be desired, but the reactor itself has been flawless.

I have used a Geo 612 and a Precision Marine and I thought they were both good calcium reactors. I found the Precision Marine lid
easier to seal than the Geo, but I like the ph port in the Geo lid.

1. Deltec
2. GEO
3. Korallin (if you're really in a bind, but at least they can switch between CA and a nitrate reactor check marine depot for the kit)

I'm pretty sure most people are happy with the first two, but if price wasn't an issue, they'd be lying if they didn't choose them in that order.

Never heard anything bad about reef tek. I have a friend that has two of them and he seems happy with them. I personly own a GEO and love it.
