Calcium Reactor really needed?

[bigkahuna]

Is calcium reactor really needed? Is it better than solutions or powder?

Depends mostly on the size and stony coral load of your tank.

It's not required. Depending who you ask you'll hear different answers. There's no one way of having a successful reef. If I remember you're starting your first reef tank, right? I would suggest not using a calcium reactor at the start. Maybe try 2 part dosing or just routine regular water changes. Down the road if you eventually have a fully stocked tank full of corals maybe then a calcium reactor would be something you would consider.

I got my ca rxtr because I couldn't keep up with the demand of ca and alk
I was dosing full baby bottles daily of b Ionic which was getting old and tiresome testing dosing testing dosing so I got a ca rxtr and I love it! Whatever is easiest for you and your reef do it
