    CO2 Scrubber

    I made one a few weeks ago out of an old RO chamber I had laying around. I received the soda lime on Monday, and installed the unit on Tuesday, so I'm on my 5th day.

    Marks...Back to the Future..Reef Aquarium

    I saw this brand new for $225.00, so even with the Atman pump I think it'd be a good investment. http://seaaquatics.com/products/bubble-magus-bm-180ex

    Media reactor advice

    I haven't tried those reactor's, but I've been using the BRS reactors, and really like them. I think in your case the Jumbo would be best. And with the BRS GB just starting, if you participate you'll get their "preferred reefer" status going forward.
