This is the initial video of installing this beast of a calcium reactor: ruclips.net/video/y6xNnGrXD8c/видео.html
You're a reefing wizard, never fail to amaze.
ruclips.net/video/f-gEH56nQrQ/видео.html please look at this wanted to share with you.
Sorry I shared a link with you of some guy that has frag tanks outside his home only uses sunlight. I saw this and figured you might want to take a peak. ruclips.net/video/f-gEH56nQrQ/видео.html
Thank you for the review Jake!
Good review Jake on this beast of a calcium reactor.
That is an awesome reactor...great review
Studio's looking good Jake.
Killer review Jake!
Très intéressant, merci Jake. 👍👍👍
I am looking for the 1500 for my new build. Great review
Amazing equipment!!! Wow!!
You get what you pay for! Just hooked up my Twin Tech 1500 and it is quiet. All that you said, I can totally agree with and when your done with initial setup you realize how easy it is. It was fortunate enough to witness the degassing process of this reactor. Mind blowing to see this thing that automated. Lowest setting at 3 and stable 9.24-9.26.
I have a Twintech 1500 and it is the first CaRx I have had. It was easy to set up and as Jake says it works straight out of the box. I am actually using it alongside Triton dosing, to reduce the amount of Triton juice Im using. So far it is working very well.
Great to hear that Battyjoe
Jake never fails to deliver; great review. And what about those intro beats...I thought I had mistakenly hit upon a Tarantino preview
Jake be putting out BANGERSSS 🎶🎶🎶
Outstanding review and overview. I want one even more now!
I'd like to know a bit more about the type of regulator you used. Psi, bubble count and solenoid connection.
just a cheap-o mini regulator, for this type of reactor it's enough since the Solenoid is precisely controlled by the float switch
So I was wondering besides the lcd screen on Deltec's twin tech which one stand out between it and the Dastaco auto calcium reactors?
Wish I had looked it over better when I was there, but this video did all the explaining;) I think I remember you saying retail was about $2K on this unit???
Waiting for the update on the peninsula and the other tanks!
hi Jake i'm struggling to get my PH up to 6.5 in the deltech reactor, do you have any tips for me please?
boy I love your music video of fish thanks.
The mother of commercial calcium reactors was the knop model c. And I was the one who bring them on the us market 1996! This Modell, OK without all that technic stuff, I have had for 6 month. You need 2 persons to open that mess because of a Vakuum. And the important point.. The flow inside is so minor that the output of CA and kh is much less than a schuran Jetstream.. For example will produce.
Awesome video. I'm looking into buy one. Do you still recommended this brand. I know you said if it's it's your first one to maybe buy a different brand because I've never owned before?
Good video. How loud is the TwinTec? Can you operate it below the tank in the living room or will I be single again, after installing it?
What if you have a power outage ? will the pump prime back by it self ?
Could you not add a second chamber to increase the ph of the output ?
Hi JAke, do you have a link where i can purchase the regulator please?
Nick
Awesome reactor! I love the prefilter idea, what are you using for that? Also, what alk is it outputting in the effluent?
To be honest, I haven't done my due diligence with this reactor to test the effluent alk or pH, since it's kept up with the demand, but I will get there out of curiosity.
What is the lifespan of the pumps? If they fail can they be replaced
Nice!
What happens if the solenoid fails, is there a fail safe?
Jake what a tune damn id please:-)
Hi jake whe you dose manually do you dose alk and calc in equal parts or dose different amounts according to your tank... also what brand solution do you use for your two part thanks
Just dry brightwell Calcion and Alkalin-P
nice and it equals a good calc reactor in pricing. no brainer this is the one
I use that prefilter and post filter and I have to replace the post-filter once every 6 months or so as it gets scummy, they are really cheap though.
Muito top! 😁
Can you do a video on the controller alone
I own one of this calcium reactor but I don’t really know how the controller works
Thx
@ovidiumirauta do you still have this reactor? Your thoughts? Is it worth purchasing?
Hello Jake. Just saying thanks for the videos you produce, enjoy them. Just one down side. You cause me to go spending more and more money on corals, and they aren't cheap this side of the World. Should be saving my money for the hospital bills that are sure to come. You know how it is with those over 65 :-)
How does it do with Display pH? You used to run Kalk? Are you still using it?
These are very efficient at using CO2 and so don’t impact the 500 gallon volume like a typical reactor, and yes still dose kalk to keep pH high
Looking into calcium reactors for my 450 gallon. Any further comments or reviews on this? Is it worth the premium cost over a “standard” assemble yourself calcium reactor like a georeef?
I love this thing so much, looking at getting another one for the next build
What CO2 regulator do you use for this? I can’t find one without a selinoid. What one did you use. Want to buy this reactor but want all the parts lined up first.
Serious question somewhat related to this topic. How are crushed corals actually harvested? Is it sustainable and responsible? Anyone have any insight on this?
Like most things we consume i myself would bet that it has its own impact.
They can be washed up in beach gravel, they might be removed from sand which is harvested for building or other industries, the might be dead corals from imports that didn't make it or collectors which harvested damaged/unsellable coral.
They are collected from all the tank crashes.
From what I have seen diving and considering the few people actually in the hobbie I doubt we could ever make a difference in the supply. Crushed coral is naturally occurring in the caribbean, it's just large sand or small rocks. There are spots I dive in the florida keys that have vast amounts of watercress alga leaves that would work better in calcium reactors than coral and a lot more sustainable than slow growing coral.
Were would I buy one ? And what kind of basket is that for the chato
just a random basket, I always pick up different sized ones at department stores
Do you have to use the "feed pump" or can you use off a manifold?
Comes with a feed pump
@@ReefBuildersVideo I understand it comes with the feed pump. Can you use the unit without it?
A toy on my list for sure! would it be better to run kalkwasser also for the ph
using calcium and kalk reactors gives you the best of both worlds
its a shame no follow up video about maintenance has been posted.
Is that a kessil you are using to illuminate the calcium reactor?
they are Fiilex studio lights with the same platform as the old Kessil A360 lights
Release date on this? Looking around I see preorder price in Euros, 1300 (yikes!) however feed pump, solenoid to control it so you don't need an electronic CO2 switch, might make the price a bit more reasonable when you add that stuff in with a regular CaRx. Thanks for sharing. And I'm sorry but over your right shoulder I just couldn't stop looking at that tank with the beam of sunlight zapping in there, now THAT is the way I want to see corals! I get something similar through a door's window but only for like 30 minutes in the morning when the sun is low at the right times of the year.
I don't know the exact release date but should be confirmed by the time MACNA rolls around. On another note, the solar beam SEEMS like a good idea but in my case its a bigger area and for longer so I've had to cover up the windows to reduce algae and moderate bleaching.
Where can I get this calcium reactor?
Reef Aquaria Design will be the US distributor
Great vid! So one of my lads has always sworn by dastaco and I didn’t know why until now! It’s an automatic! Would you say this one and the dastaco are comparable?
This is a brand new design and DaStaCo hasn't changed in about ten years, they are in completely different leagues
I cant find this thing in the states. 😓😓😓😓😓
Deltecdirectusa.com JUST went live
Wishlist.....
Still using this Jake? any updates or tricks you want to share?
Yes it’s a workhorse, can’t imagine using anything else
Do you have any updates? How’s it running?

Cross shopping this and Bill Wann’s ACR :)
Hi reef builders, where can i get them?
Question, I have been a successful reefer for years but one issue I always get to is the demand of minerals. With a calcium reactor, how would you keep the tanks pH at an ideal range if the calcium reactor is constantly dripping low pH?
Who will sell them here in the USA?
Deltec USA
This was the first reactor i bought
Really? Which model and how do you like it for your application?
Where did u buy?
Must be a very old reactor to be the mother of all calcium reactors. My guess great great great grandmother.
Deltec is a strange company. They have a magnificent catalogue of unavailable goods and spare parts.
