    I'm in the market for a Ca Reactor and large skimmer. Let me know if you have any to sell. Also looking for leads where to get the best deal on new ones. I'm on the verge of purchasing these two:

    Really appreciate it.

    if you can define large, that would be good, as well as your price range.

    I have a 150g bowfront display reef with a 100g sump. I have some SPS, LPS and softies. I have about 6 fish. I would like to support at least double the fish and many more corals. I'm looking for a Ca Reactor and a skimmer which will provide adequate support. This is why I was looking at these two models. If I buy the whole setup from Marinedepot, it will run me about $1500. So I guess I am open to any price range under that.

    Thanks, Kevin

    I have an ASM G4X available which will support your system and then some without a sweat.. It was previously used on our 190+60 gal sump with a heavy bioload.. 4+ tangs, over 25 fish total.. $200..

    You would need to find a calcium reactor though.. We run a Korallin C1502 which is pretty standard, and have had good luck with it.. I do hear good things about the GEO calcium reactors though.. No matter which calcium reactor you go with, you should go with a very high quality regulator.. When ours goes out, I will be going with this .. It's priced a bit higher than others, but well worth it!
