Anyone using this reactor? I just set it up last night. I have had some question but I think Andy at MRC must be tied up or I am having email problems with my Internet Provider (started emailing him with questions 4 days ago and have not heard back).
I was having a bit or a problem last night getting the lid of the reactor to stop leaking. I realy had to crank it down as much as I could by hand as he says no wrenchs (in a star pattern of course). It seems to have stoped for the most part except when I adjust the effluent rate it seems to seep out a little. Anyone else have this issue with this reactor?
I have my buble count at 1 drop per 3 secs. I have my drip rate (efluent) at 60 drips per minute. How soon until I notice the Alk increasing? My Effluent has a PH in the 6.9-7.0 range this AM. THe manual with the reactor says it could take a week for the Alk to increase? That seems very odd?
I have a high demand tank so I am hoping this thing will kick in soon.
If anyone has experience with dialing in this reactor, please advise.
Thanks
Andrew
