Media Reactors Pricing Questions

[Matthew5664]

I'm still in the planning stage but have come up with a good design and was getting materials together but some I will have to by in bulk. So I was going to make about 10 or so and see if I could sell them on the web but I'm looking for prices. Could you help me by stating?

a) How much you paid for yours if you bought one?
B) How much it cost if you made one?
c) How much you would spend on one from a good retailer?
d) How much would you pay for a privately made one?

Just need a good idea what price to charge if I was to sell them.

Also would need a Guinea Pig to try one out for me.

My Phos Reactor cost me less than $20 to make, that included the filter media. I did not factor in the cost of the rigid tubing because I already had about 20' of it. They are fairly easy to construct. A working model is extremely easy to make, just because it's fancy in the stores doesn't mean it has to be fancy to work.

IME they are between $30 and $80 for the same Kent model at various LFS around here.

If your making a calcuim reactor, that could be more expensive.
