Motorized Super Reef Kalk Stirrer

Reef Octopus new Kalk Stirrer (Nilsen Reactor) carries a high torque low RPM motor that effectively, silently and gently mixes your calcium hydroxide (kalkwasser).  This method is not only ideal but is also the safest way of dosing the freshest possible kalkwasser to your reef system. Our Kalk Stirers are designed to keep the  undissolved particles at the bottom of the reactor chamber while always leaving the clear highly saturated kalkwasser liquid at the top.  Adding kalk powder couldn’t be easier with just a few twists of the large thumb screws  releasing the seal-tight lid for quick and easy kalk refills.

No need for pesky powerheads that randomly need to be cleaned or replace and no more risky dosing with large vats of lime water which take up valuable space. You will never have to worry about premixing or clogs again when using our new innovative and efficient Kalk Stirrer (Nilsen Reactor) which are extremely easy to use and salt-water safe, making them simply the most economical and best kalk reactor out there.

A Kalk reactor is a great way to keep Calcium levels and PH up in your reef tank. The Kalk reactor takes fresh water and mixes it up with Calcium Hydroxide to make a saturated solution. This solution is then dripped in to your tank as your sole source of make-up water. The calcium in this solution is critical for the strong growth of stony corals, clams, and other critters that use the calcium for building shells and skeletons. You can either gravity feed through the Kalkreactor from a freshwater top-off system to your reservoir, or use a dosing pump.
