Just bought a GEO 618, I hope it's big enough.

I just bought a GEO calcium reactor, 618. This is going on a 220G with an 80 gallon sump. Also thinking about adding a 29G or 55G fuge in the mix. The display is going to be a mix of corals, NOT sps dominated by any means, just several scattered around the upper part of the tank. Do you guys think it'll suffice? Will it keep me at 400+? I looked at the 624 and saw the giant pan-world pump and 30" height and thought it would be major overkill. Was I right?




LOLOL, it's hilarious how we ask these questions AFTER purchasing.

How often do you change/add the media? How long does the Co2 last?

I have a 210 gal heavy sps tank, and the two part is being used up very quickly. I`m looking to add a reactor, just want to do it right the first time. Something that can go for at least 6 months before I need to change the media.

My tank uses 600ml of Randy`s two part recepie 1.

Thanks,

Paul.
