Calc Reactor Sizing
 
Starting to build out my sump "cabinet" and looking to rightsize the equipment I need to accommodate.

When sizing a Calc Reactor, do you include the water volume in sumps and fuge's etc?

For me it's the difference in a 210G display v's 370g total water volume for my planned system.

TIA

Just the display. If you have a frag setup include that. Sumps and fuges don't count.

I wonder if the 'science' of sizing a CaRx is any better than sizing a skimmer :lol:

I've seen a 4ft tall 10"dia CaRx on a 120gal tank. One of the best sps tanks i've ever seen in person :lol:
