hi there i was just wondering where do you place your calcium reactor? i just got a geo reactor and was concerned about the co2 buildup in the chamber. does the reactor need to be below the tank so the co2 can be released through the return line or can i place my calcium reactor above my tank. were do you place yours?

I don't have one. But a buddy of mine has his dripping into his sump in the same chamber as the return pump. SAo it's right before the water goes back into the display.

more specificlly where is your chamber located, below or above your tank, the reason i ask is mine is placed above my tank and there is a co2 build up in the chamber. i dont want the chamber to explode under the pressure as more co2 is added.

if the chamber is below the tank then the co2 can excape through the return line, if the chamber is above the tank then its harder for the co2 to excape.
my question: is the co2 build up in the chamber need to be released or does the co2 disolve in the chamber?
sorry guys im confused......
