Algae reactors are becoming more commonplace and Pacific Sun is one of the many companies getting into the mix with thePacific Sun AR-Pro seriesof reactors.
Just like algae scrubbers and macroalgae in refugiums, the algae reactor is an efficient way to contain algae-based nutrient export. The system is a tube that holds the chaetomorpha and blasts its with an LED light stick while running water through it.
Like others on the market, this is really about a tidy way to gain the benefits of an algae scrubber, and while there may be some slight nuances of the Pacific Sun design vs. others.
The Pacific Sun AR-PRO comes in three versions — S, M and L — and retail from209.00€to389.00€. This should be in line with many of the quality algae reactors on the market, but less expensive than the Pax Bellum.
