+dapettit Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I'm piecing together a Calcium reactor. I was wondering what is being used out there. I was thinking about the Ma957 Co2 Regulator but I am open to suggestions. Thanks for your input, Dave- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmanning Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 I see the Ma957 "CO2 Regulator w/Solenoid Diaphragm Valve & Bubble counter CO-MA957 $89.95" at Aquacave - that's a much better deal than most regulators alone.. I was stupid and bought all these pieces separately and the solenoid cost me $80 alone (locally). (ahem) If I had to do it over again - this looks like the way to go. especially since it includes the bubble counter AND needle valve! (Sigh) -so I live, and learn.. so I had paid 89 for a bottle, another 80 for a regulator, another 80 for the stupid solenoid..then I had to "invent" my own needle valve (pita!). Now I see this whole thing for 89! - crapskies.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+dapettit Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 This is what I ended up buying. I don't see anything about a needle valve . . . http://www.water-testers.com/index1.html Paid $84.99 w/free shipping. Dave- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmanning Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 You did good - I followed that link and scrolled down to the Ma957 and it says: "It features a needle valve and bubble counter along with a solenoid valve." That's a good package deal. Did you get the Milwaukee PH controller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+dapettit Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 Good I was afraid I didn't get what I needed. I got the pinpoint PH probe to use on the Reefkeeper 2. I can program the RK2 to control the unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
