Hello all, first time poster here. I was reading the thread and I do NOT have the skillset (or the tools
) to complete this type of project. I have a 75gal reef with a 40 gal sump/refugium. I keep mainly corals and I am board with water changes.
I wanted to get into the Sulfur De-nitrinator for the ability to not have to change water so much and also to not be so darn particular when feeding my fish/corals (worry about waste/nitrates)
I purchased 2 ViaQua Poly Reactors:
ViaAqua Poly-Reactor (Multi-Media Reactor)
and:
CS0525 CaribSea A.R.M. Aragonite Reactor Media 1 $11.99
CS0528 CaribSea L.S.M. Live Sulfur Media 1 Gallon 1 $19.99
I wanted to know if this setup will work, I was going to start with a VERY small amount of Sulfur (1/3 filled) in the first chamber and 2/3rds filled ARM in the second chamber. I was going to start with a 1 drip/hr rate and adjust as necessary. (I run a 24hr PH monitor)
I wanted to also know if anyone has heard any long term effects with running this setup, like Sulfur buildup in the main tank after months/years?
I also had thought about putting 6 foot of tubing before the 1st chamber to let oxygen dissipate and a 6 foot tubing after the second chamber to make sure sulfur does not reach the main tank, is this over thinking it?
Thank you for any help/suggestions, I will send pictures after the setup is complete.
Gary
