Aquamedic 5000 calcium reactor, project thread

[joe findell]

Hello all,
I have finally started building my fish room and am going to use the aquamedic 5000 twin skimmer for the filtration. I have seen these beasts in action before and feel good about the unit. I however do not have any experience with their 5000 calcium reactor and would like some input if anyone has experience with this unit.

I may start a thread on the build as I have just started the project this weekend.

Living room
90 or 125 display (undecided on this tank)

Basement controle room
120 gal oceanic display (moving home from my wifes shop)
120 gal 8x2x1 coral station and look down vat
100 gal sump
70 gal rodi storage
35 gal salt mix
40 gal hospital tank

It should be a good project as I have been planning it for a while but it has recently taken a different approach. I will give all the background and such in my opening thread if I decide to document the project.

Well, if I can ask for advice from you guys...I should start the thread if you guys are interested in seeing it.

Advice on reactore would be appreciated.
Let me know about the thread.


Thanks in advance,
