Good morning, is there anyway I could figure a drip rate using TLF reborn in a Ca reactor to come close to the 2-part daily dosage I currently use? I have no idea what the reactor effluent in Ca and Alk would do to my levels in comparison to my 68ml daily 2 part dosing. It would be terrific to understand a good starting point when switching over from 2 part to a Ca reactor? What do we do in this case? Thanks

I’m curious where you got the reborn from????

i don’t know if any math exists to fit the bill. I kept dosing alk and some cal for several days after firing up the geo. I cut alk dosing in half every day for about 4-5 days. Tested alk 6 times a day just to be sure:cool:

I would do a little more research. Their is a ton of info on carx's out their.
First how do plant to operate the reactor?
I switched from 45ml of 2 part on my 120 to a carx.
I run manmade media.
I run no controller or ph meter.
I set my co2 and effluent drip to get 20+ dkh out of the reactor.
I would have to go back over my notes but I tested daily and only added 2 part for a couple days to maintain my dkh.
I have been running for 6+ months now and alk has been stable at 7-7.3.
