only thing I see is that a calcium reactor wont have a bleed valve for air. should be an easy fix. not that Ive ever seen an accumulation if air in my calcium reactor anyway though...

edit: thought about it for a second, the nitrate reactor has a gaurd on the intake for the pump so air can accumulate while the calcium reactor does not and will just dice it up in the pump.

so might want to throw a little gaurd on there so air can settle at the top and you can vent it off.

if you run CO2 though, itll be a problem I think.

My Korallin C1502 is designed to be used either way.
