In my 120 gallon I have 32 Acro frags (3 about yr old mini colonies now, and the rest new within the last 3 months), along with a couple montis, snails, and finally starting to see the start of some coraline algae growing on the glass.
I picked up a DOS about 2 months ago and switched over to...
Hi everyone hope you’re doing well. So today I tested my water for the first time and here are my numbers
Calcium: 350
Alkalinity: 7
Ph: 7.8
I have brightwell aquatics calcium, alkalinity and ph ready to be used. I’ve been doing some research on dosing but it’s hard to wrap your head around...
Hey guys was cleaning the fish room and I get some stuff to get rid of,
Apex unit, not sure where the face is, I connected it to 192.168.0.50:80 and can access fusion, it also comes with two probes(and magnetic probe holder). Shoot me an 200obo on that cause I’m not sure of a price without the...
Hi all, I'm now using a D-D P4 Pro dosing pump and which give great control over chemical anti-interference, split dosing over a schedule etc. and its got me researching for answers to a couple of questions...
For each of my Alkalinity, Calcium, Magnesium, NoPoX ...
Recommended times of day to...
Hello,
I want to know how to dose The Dry calcium from AF (make my own water to be dosed)
I saw on youtube on the balling method, that you should add 50 grams of Dry Calcium to 1 liter with RODI water.
They dont mention how much ml you should dose to a certain Tank size, and how much will...
Howdy everyone, my love just got me the new apex system and a new trident :)!!
So i'm selling my kh director I purchased Jan 16'th of last year so still under warranty.
Everything works great, includes Kh director, Stand alone GHL doser all cables and half a bottle of 1000ml reagent.

Has anyone tried the Red Sea Reef Energy Coral nutrition A/B ?
What effects does it have on calcium and magnesium? How can the calcium and mag dip and rise without doing anything? Started dosing Alkalinity by Red Sea. Need to get CO2 to get my calcium reactor running. Who’s used a calcium...
I keep testing my pH and trusting the Red Sea test kit, which shows a consistent 8.0-8.4 number throughout the day. Since I like this number over that of the probe, I've assumed it was correct. Now, I replaced my Neptune systems double junction probe without of BRS, also double junction. Both...
A quick poll about how to be sure your trident is giving correct measurements: You can pick one or more than one. This poll is about the trident - and is not designed to be a negative. Its designed to see how many people actually do what Neptune says they should do when using their equipment...
I've been doing reef aquaria long enough to know I'm not supposed to chase numbers; yet, I found myself doing that the past couple of weeks. Unfortunately, in the process, I've managed to kill 1 clam, while the other one looks like it's on its way out. Everything else seems to be looking all...
So I just received my new reefbot.
I am surprised to report that it cannot test 8 different things as one setup.
I am able to test Alk. Calcium. Mag. And phosphates.
So even though there are 8 vials in the machine some test kits require multiple reagents for a single test.
I guess I will need...
Has anyone else had an issue with IO Reef Crystals having super high calc?
I had a calc reading of 518 in my tank over the weekend and a fellow reefer on here suggested I mix some fresh SW and test the params, so I did and at 1.026 ppm, Reef Crystals is measuring calc at 522.
Anyone else had...
Hi all,
I invested in a couple of Hanna checkers for the first time! I have a 25 lagoon that's about 7 months old. It's all LPS right now, and I'd like to add some montis soon, so I tested both Calc & Alk today for the first time and they came in at 518 & 8.1, respectively.
I double tested...
Curious people are always buying frags - and every now and then (every other day lol:) there is a comment about 'the high prices'. So - I'm curious - what percentage of your frags actually 'grow into colonies - lets say 5 inches or more. How important do you think stable alkalinity is in...
We sold out of the Neptune Systems Trident in about 10 minutes this morning.
The good news: we'll have more on the way soon!

I've been dosing Brightwell Aquatics Reef Code A & B for about a week now. Learned that I need to dial up my dose but also wanted to bring my Calcium and Alkalinity up generally, and in reading the advanced instructions I'm a bit confused.
Reef Code A (Calcium) instructions read:
"If the...
Hey all, i tested my water last night and tonight to see the amount i need to dose for calcium, alk, and magnesium. Last night, my alk was at a 7.2, magnesium was around 1425 ppm, and calcium was at about 520 ppm (This was after a water change that I did a day before). Tonight, I saw that my alk...
Hi everyone.
So I got my hanna test kit today to move from my regular dosing to just using kalkwasser with an ATO. My calcium is at 483 and alkalinity is at 7.2 which is alright for me alkalinity could be raised a bit but 7.2 is really fine for me. Should I allow my tank to go for a week...

Looking for a Hanna Checker for Calcium. If anyone has one and can ship asap, please let me know what your asking price is. If it doesn't have any reagent left, I'm not interested though.
