    Knop C Calcium Reactor Input

    I just bought a used Knop-C calcium reactor that came without any manuals or instructions and was wondering how people feed water into the reactor???

    The different methods i have heard to feed reactors in general include (gravity, suction, or pump)

    The input line seems very tiny to be hooked to a pump (airline tubing diameter)....any assistance in setup and use would be appreciated!

    Thanks,
    Greg D.

    Greg,
    I'm not to familiar with a Knop reactor but I would think a small powerhead (maxi-jet 1200) would work great. Set it up so the effluet rate is about 60 ml per minute to start and see how it does.

    Maybe somebody else with a knop reactor will have better advice. I use a Geo dual stage reactor.
