Review on 🐠 Sera Flore Active CO2 Reactor 1000 – Ideal for Aquariums Over 160 Gallons by Pleaze Evans

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The required pipe size is not mentioned anywhere.

Not satisfied with the product. I couldn't figure out what size pipe to connect to this reactor from their manual. I have a Marineland C360 canister filter with a 3/4 ID tube. I tried connecting it directly to the reactor (with a clamp) and it was leaking like crazy. Since I couldn't find the tube size required for this product anywhere in their manual, I had to buy several tubes and a tube adapter before finally getting it to work with my 3/4 ID tube (for a Marineland C360 filter). Just for anyone wondering, my current setup is that my filter outlet hose (3/4 ID) goes into a 3/4 to 5/8 adapter and I have another 5/8 ID hose connected to the adapter for Sera Flore . Reactor. I also had to use lots of gorilla glue and some hose clamps to make sure there weren't any leaks from the hoses. Another negative aspect of this reactor is that the CO2 injection nipple is very fragile.
