Unless your CaRx is really small, it should be able to keep up if it has a good tune and you are not trying to "control" it with a pH probe. Some people have no interest in this, but if you do, let me know and I can show you how. Even my 4" body and 30" tall Korallin could handle a 10,000 gallon heavy SPS tank, but the media would need changed quite often.
29 dKh is solid output number. Unless you have like a MaxiJet on full blast with no ball or gate valve, then the reactor will produce more. Coralline is likely your biggest consumer - you can use pincushions to keep it down 6x18 is not that big, but it should get you more. Maybe you have a 8x30, or the like, in your future.
Second chamber does not do anything, really, unless you have just a ton of unused co2 leaving the reactor - this only really happens when people use pH controller and it turns on/off a lot and dumps a bunch of co2 every time it turns on.
I like to keep my dKh around 25, so 29 is fine. You can probably go up to 40 and be OK without melting the media, so you could also turn the bubbles up just a touch.

Been finishing the basement around the tank for the last 3 weeks I haven’t been able to even see in the tank as it was taped off for tape and texture and then I decided to grind my floors before doing my laminate. Took every precaution possible to keep the dust out and fumes.uncovered it today and cleaned the glass and man feels like stuff grew like a weed. Trying to post a video but it’s not letting me
