I just built a Kalk Reactor out of two cylindrical boxes of ZIP ties. They are clear and fit exactly in all the 4" pvc unions and end caps. Two boxes, one union, one slip endcap and one threaded endcap and I got a 30'' reactor (leak free too). Look for GB Electrical Assorted cable ties. I got mine for 6 bucks at lowe's, and used PVC primer and Cement to glue it. If anybody needs exact instructions as to how to build this, I can post them. Besides the pump, I found EVERYTHING at Lowe's. Pictures coming soon.
