Please can you fill the missing Informations?

1. What Water parameters are your Favorites?
No3 = about 25
Po4 = 0,09 try less
Are these NO3 and Po4 your Favorites?
Yes we are usually around 30ppm No3 and 0.05ppm Po4.


Ca = 450
Alk = 8.0
Mag = 1350
Sal = 1.025


2. Did you make Balling or anything to hold the Level of the Water parameters?
GEO Calcium Reactor w/ AquariumPlants.com electronic solenoid

3. Did you Used real Seawater or 100% Synthetic?
Synthetic

4. If not, what Salt did you prefer?
Instant Ocean, Brightwell Aquatics

5. How many Water changes did you make?
20% water changes bi-weekly

6. I read you feed Heavy, can you tell us how much, how often and what you feed?
Only fish or corals extra?
3 times a day frozen food blend heavy broadcast feed + Algae sheets daily

7. Low Turnover? Any Infos about your System?
Yes low turnover with high flow inside the tank. We use a media reactor with sometimes carbon or Brightwell ExtraxPhos. Protein skimmer is underrated so skimming is light.

Thank you very much!
Thank you for your interest, and sorry for the late reply.

Thanks for posting this, it certainly helps those who are chasing 0's for Po4 and No3 and gives me something to cheer since I can't ever seem to get my No3 down but 30ppm, now that's something I've done. It also confirms what I see with my eyes in my own tank, even with No3 elevated and my Po4 a bit higher than yours things seem fine.

So thanks again!

Those questions and answers should be stickied at the start of the thread. This way we can all look back at them if we forget.

Otherwise we have to keep hounding WWC for their answers.

Could you go into detail about your starboard installation?

1) thickness
2) did you leave a gap around perimeter or cut it to flush against the tank walls?
3) did you silicone perimeter?
4) what kind/ brand silicone?
5) what is the model # for the starboard?
6) where can I buy?
I am interested in doing this in my new 90 gallon 48x24x18 tank so any other suggestions or tips would be great thanks.

Refer to this post and the ones after for size and pics..

You can see we do mount it pretty flush and silicone. There are several different manufacturers, Starboard is an actual brand. It is typically called Marineboard and is just a marine grade high-density polyethylene. We sell it here, you may be able to find it locally. Any aquarium safe silicone will work.
