| Hey! I have a 125 gal tank on the verge of becoming a reef. I have a few corals in there nothing fancy yet. Just a few blue mushrooms, zoos have identified what kind, bubble coral, and a bubble tip anenome. I'm looking to add some stony corals to the tank. Not sure what to begin with (any suggestions). I was looking for a good calcium reactor but i don't know what would be a good kind. I also have limited space also. Money isn't an issue.Also one last thing is the liquid calcium that Kent sells that is already reacted any good and is it efficient?

| calcium reactors are a very good and bad thing to have. if you get one make sure its all digital with an automatic shut off if the kh or calcium gets to high. the problem with reactors is that if it pumps in 2 much co2 it raises the kh witch kills coral. my recommendation is to use a high quality salt like tropic marin pro reef that keeps calcium at a 400-450 level already with regular water changes. either way you have to manually add calcium and supplements to the tank or manually inspect and adjust your calcium reactor regularly, so either way your still doing the same amount of work yet one costs 400$ less.
