Reactor 16/22
Very simple reactor, easy to set up. I was using the aluminum inline diffuser and I didn't like the bubbles all over my tank, it looked like Sprite soda, it took away from my serene look I was after. I hooked up the CO2 Reactor here and no more bubbles except from my plants! I can see my plants finally pearling. Awesome product!

Clear water!
This GLA Aquarium CO2 Reactor 16/22mm is absolutely AWESOME!!! It's big. It is well designed and sturdy. Connecting it was as easy as running the hoses. I used the co2 fitting to bleed initial bubbles with a air hose into a bucket. The water swirls like a tornado from top to bottom but since there are no bubbles you can't really see the swirling. Even the co2 coming into this reactor does not create bubbles. It blends with the water so well I never see bubbles anywhere. Well.....except for my Anubias flower which is showering my tank with pearls of oxygen : ). Aquarium water is crystal clear. One thing to be ready for is the wall thickness of your filter tubing. I cobbled random 5/8 tubing to get it up and running and the nuts on the reactor that snug the hose to the fitting worked on the thicker walled tubing but was iffy with my Fluval 407 hose and some other black hose I had laying around. Can't please everybody so have some appropriate hose size hose clamps ready. You'll sleep better. 4ft. 60 gal. tank, Fluval 407 canister into this reactor into glass lily pipe. I'm extremely happy!

Very cool co2 reactor.
Was getting tired of all the co2 bubbles in the aquarium and could not get the stainless so I got this and it works very well. All co2 is saturated so my water is finally clear!

Awesome co2 reactor.
Great buy on this co2 reactor. Its not made of steel, but its still big and will perfrom the same task minus the other stuff the SS versions have. This all plastic model works just fine. Ive had it on my 90g tank for almost a year now and Im back to buy another one.

Really effective co2 reactor
Works very well and much better than my PVC style reactor. Its bigger volume and has the cool elbow piece inside that makes a whirlpool effect.

GLA CO2 reactor makes a HUGE difference!
After seeing a video about the comparison between diffusers, inline diffusers and reactors for CO2 addition to aquariums, I decided to give the GLA reactor a try. The CO2 levels are really easy to control, and my water is CRYSTAL clear (which means that CO2 is making it to the bottom of the tank because it’s totally dissolved in the water)! Love how this makes my tank look and my plants and fish seem to love it, too!

Amazing product!
GLA I never doubt quality is always top notch. I have only been running the reactor for about a week on my IAPLC tank and I see great growth and daily happy plants. Showing good pearling and such by day end. To me it shows that they are getting plenty of what they need. Love it is quiet and no co2 bubbles in the tank and waste of co2 isn’t there! I’m very happy with the purchase and will probably be buying one for my other tanks as well!

Best co2 reactor for your planted tank.
Works absolutely flawless. Co2 is stable all day and the best part, no bubbles! A+

Absolute beast of a reactor.
Quick delivery and works fantastic. Installation was elementary and took a few minutes. My 80g tank is 100% clear of co2 bubbles. My last reactor had to be burped of co2 daily. I had GLA help me dial in my co2 system and my tank has never been more stable.

Aquarium co2 reactor for planted tanks you cant pass up.
Great bargain for getting all your co2 100% saturated. It was easy to set up and my co2 is far more stable. You can view this data if you use a pH controller with an app interface. The difference I see is amazing. My graphs are much much more steady and not like a roller coaster. I had no idea. Im using reactors from here on out.
