I was debating on adding the reactor now while the tank is new, or waiting 6 months or so till the reef was more mature. So I called ...

To resolve the issue that occurs sometimes of it timing out and not coming back on, someone suggested plugging it into the ReefKeeper on a cycle and making it cut off and back on every ...
