DIY calcium reactor

[wildcats]

hi everyone!
Does anyone have any diy plans for a reactor? Or maybe some pics with instructions. I have been searching around but the ones I found are a bit confusing.

This is the poor-mans calcium reactor I plan on building. I will let everyone know how it goes.

I found good plans for a calcium reactor on tampabayreef.com. I built the unit out of regular pvc for $25.00 for the unit, $34.00 for the pump, and $100.00 total for the co2 unit. It was very easy to build and works well. Aragonite is an ongoing cost as it needs changed every 3 months or so. Good luck!

Is the purpose of a calcium reactor to add calcium to a reef tank. I have a reef tank and I just add supplements, is there any benefit of having one on a fish only tank. Thanks, Justin
