Mako Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Hey every one I got a used Korallin calcium reactor. I need recommendations for a regulator and most like some help setting this up. The tank need to be inspected. (any recommendations) Maybe someone has a regulator that would work lying around. also came with PH controller. "no clue how to set this up either". any help would be awesome, have never had one before. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb in Austin Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I'm no expert but when I started my fw planted tank, I found a good quality regulator on eBay. I think it was ~$60. Edit: It's an IM Cornelius regulator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 A lot of people use the Milwaulkee brand dual gauge regulators as well. Round Rock Welding supply and Airgas are two places that will swap cylinders and/or inspect them for you. I didn't see you mentionion a ph probe, but if you don't have one, you'll need one. And if you got one used that wasn't properly stored (membrane stored in a 4 pH solution), then you'll need a new one anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted June 8, 2014 Author Share Posted June 8, 2014 I believe it has one, like I said I'm new to this. Ty when I get all the parts I will have to coax you to come and see your old tank and help me set it up..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoly Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 that there is a pH probe. unless it was in continuous use until you bought it, you'll want a new one (maybe a second to have on hand as a backup). pH probe in a CaRx is nothing to scrimp on, its pretty easy to harm your tank if its not in good working order.
