    Red Sea dosing question

    I just added a reef dose 2 to my system to help a little with the alkalinity and the nitrates. I was just curious on if I need to somehow vent the bottles. It seems like they would slowly go into vacuum as the pumps start pulling fluid out. Anyone using this system that can let me know what I...

    Dosing more Alkalinity than CA

    What effect will that have on my tank? I have noticed white specs all over my glass seems like precipitants. I know they are not alive I simply clean my glass and a few weeks later they return. Is this from mostly dosing Alk? If I continue this what will happen? So I am very new at Reefing...

I do 20-15% water changes every 2 weeks using reef crystals. Mostly LPS with some ricordea and Zoas. No SPS. Looking...

    To vacuum the sand bed or not when dosing silicate.

    I have been facing dinos in my Reefer 170 for more than 9 months now and eventually the prorocentrum have become the dominant one. They’re mainly on the sand bed. For about 3 to 4 months I have been keeping No3 at 5-15 ppm and Po4 at ~0.05 ppm through dosing. And adding live phyto and bacteria...

    Adding the Triton method to any balling method with Triton Infusion

    The Triton method is quite a bit more expensive than other balling methods, but it can be run more cheaply dosing Triton Infusion together with any balling method. We could be talking big savings: with a 100G tank consuming 1dKH per day, you'd spend: 284$ per year in Triton Core7 supplements...

    Added dKH and PO4 zeroed

    Can dosing alk drop PO4? Is it appropriate to assume I made the corals happy and they are using the PO4? Both are being measured with Hanna testers that have always matched up with ICP tests. I started dosing Red Sea KH/Alkalinity to bring my system up to proper levels. I was in the 5’s and...

    Nano Tank Struggles

    I have a 9 gallon reef tank that I obsess over a bit too much. I have dumped way too much money into the thing (although I know I could do more if I had the space).
