I recently posted another thread about building a high flow Cerges reactor that I could run off my sump's 600 gph return. The idea is that my sump's return would go directly into the CO2 reactor and the output of the reactor is split and goes to the aquarium at both ends.
However, I'm wondering if it would make sense to have a separate low-flow closed loop for the Cerges reactor. I could have a small pump in the return compartment of my sump that goes to the reactor and have the reactor's output feed back into my sump's return compartment. My reason for not doing this initially is that I wanted the freshly dissolved CO2 water to be sent directly to the aquarium where it could have the most impact, but I'm not really sure if it would make a difference.
For what its worth, I've already assembled a 20" Cerges reactor that I'm hoping can handle my 600gph flow. I haven't tried it out yet as I won't fill my aquarium for another few weeks.
Thoughts?
