The RX-1 calcium reactor represents the pinnacle in reactor technology available today. We`ve combined all the features an advanced reef hobbyist is looking for into a compact package that is easy to use and maintain. No more messing with finicky settings or inconsistent results, the RX-1 is a solid performer that will give you years of trouble-free service.

The RX-1 is rated for reef tanks up to 400 gallons in size.

Features and Specifications

8.25" x 9" footprint
16" tall
Box design holds more media than cylinder-style reactors
Reverse flow
Recirculating CO2
pH probe holder
Eheim 1250 pump
John Guest Speedfit fittings throughout
Sch. 80 PVC and unions
Large union for quick and easy media addition

SMC valve for precise effluent control

The Eheim 1250 pump included with the RX-1 sets the standard for flow and efficiency - no other reactor in its class offers such a powerful and reliable pump.

By utlizing a box design, we`re able to make the most efficient use of space (which is often at a premium under an aquarium). The RX-1 is large enough to hold an entire container of Carib Sea ARM media!

Great

great but leaky by BRYCE DEBBAN

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 2/18/2008 from LAKESIDE PARK, KY UNITED STATE

Comments: Well this is a great design for a reactor and holds a lot of media. Only issues i have is the pump is very difficult to disconnect from the system as the fittings are very tightly plumbed for space savings. Second the plumbing leaked from nearly every joint out of the box. I had to drain the unit take it apart to dry it out and use silicon on neary every joint or theaded port on the reactor. I would suggest out of the box just doing this before you even bother filling it with water. Do it on EVERY joint. Only threaded joints this did not leak from was the top lid and the two main screw joint disconnects. They used plumbing tape on the threaded joints and it did not work at all. Silicon took care of it though.
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Excellent!

Great reactor / compact size by GREG CARROLL

Experience Level: Expert

Posted on 8/19/2008 from MIRA LOMA, CA UNITED STATES

Comments: All I can say is wow! AquaC does it again. This reactor has every feature that I would want in a reactor. Ultra reliable Eheim pump, up-flow design, compact size, recirculating co2 for low co2 consumption, and best of a a screw on lid. Maintenance consist of unscrewing the lid and filling the reactor with additional media. The up-flow design means no more taking the reactor off line to empty the reactor mud that settles on a normal down-flow reactor. This has been by far the best reactor that I have ever owned!
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
