dosing

Got them for a project I was working on and ended up tying the new tank into my existing sump, so dosing is already handled. Asking $45 each or both for $80. Price includes shipping and PP fees. Pleas PM if interested. Thanks! **I do make mounting brackets for these as well, I can include...

so i currently have a 29g tank with 2 firefins, a clarkii clown, watchman goby, engineer gobyc 2 pistol shrimp, 2 peppermint shrimp, and some emerald crabs along with other various clean up crew things. I also have a few coral in my tank, currently i have gsp, a torch, an acan, ultra kenya...

Hey all! I'm looking for a little critiquing of my dosing regime. The goal of this thread is to eventually "chase" ph to the 8.1-8.3 range. Setting the stage: my tank is a 100gal IM 100INT, roughly 9 months old, and heavily leaning towards an SPS tank with 15+ "mini colony" sized pieces (>8")...

Question: - Is this level of Mg consumption normal? Seems like something is out of balance in this tank. - Open to longer term daily dosing recommendations. I have 5 dosing pumps (1 is reserved for amino acids), so flexibility here. Context: Mixed reef. 110g system. A dozen small acro frags...

Been cycling the tank for months. Set up refugium (chaeto and sea lettuce) and have added have seeded coepods. Add phyto and chaeto grow per instructions. Did a large bottle of the bacteria when starting the cycle. Ammonia, nitrite and nitrate have been stable the last two months - ph went up...

Hi guys! I’m going to start dosing TM’s NP Bacto Balance and Redsea AB+ at the same time. Just like to find out if anyone is dosing these 2 products too? And how’s the outcome? Should I start dosing these 2 products at the same time? Afraid I’ll mess up my tank’s balance by bombarding it...

Hi all, I have a 75 gallon saltwater tank, that has been running for 8 months now. I have taken the challenge of keeping it an SPS only tank. I have successfully grown 2 plating montis without any dosing and just alk testing using Hanna Checkers and water changes. I have been planning to start...

Hey everyone! I recently started a 25-gallon Water Box Peninsula tank using dry Marco rock, Ocean Direct sand, and Tropic Marin Pro Reef salt. I added one piece of live rock from a local fish store to seed biological diversity, but the majority of the hardscape is dry rock. I’m about two weeks...

Hello everyone, I have a heavy stocked SPS tank (85 gallon) and just changed from Red Sea foundation to Tropic Marin balling (4 days) but for some reason can't raise my Alk. I used to dose few ml of Red Sea and now I dosed up to 125 ml of component B but Alk still going down. Red Sea previous...

Brand new sealed Neptune DOS for sale. $300 plus shipping, I will cover fees.

What is your preferred method/supplement to dose? I currently am dosing All for reef in my small tank. I plan to use ESV 2 part and Kalk for the build I am currently working on.

Hey All, new here and slightly new to saltwater tanks, I rescued a huge collection of equipment and some animals from a hoarder, long story short I wound up with a saltwater tank that I didn't necessarily plan for or need. Anyways, my problem is that my pH will not seem to remain over 8.0 and my...

Hey all, looking to see if anyone is selling a Hydros X10 in good condition. Willing to pay a fair price and shipping to CA with or without the IV. If you have one available shoot me a PM.

I’m dealing with some Dino in my tank, and read @ScottB ’s Treatment Guide - https://www.reef2reef.com/ams/a-dinoflagellate-treatment-guide.841/ However, the guide does not say how to dose PO4. In my confusion I bought Red Sea NO3-PO4-X, but after further research it appears that lowers nitrate...

I have a mixed reef tank lots of lps 2 small sps and a lot of soft coral( 3 toad stools and a bunch of zoas) my tank is fairly new 3months, and everything looks great blooming really wide but my magnesium was at 1170 as of last week, I started dosing Brightwell aquatics magnesium every other day...

What's a safe daily increase in alkalinity levels that will not stress out corals? I've seen several different numbers. BRS's calculator recommends not increasing by more than 1.5 dKH in one day. That seems like a pretty high jump in one day. WWC's videos mention not increasing by more than .5...

Hello Everybody, I am new to the Saltwater world and I thoroughly enjoy reading all of the forums and hearing the input and advice. One thing I have been trying to do research in now that I have started getting corals up and running is maintaining nutrients. Do you guys recommend consistent...

Hi all! Long time lurker here, but the first time I'm posting. Long story short: I run a mixed reef setup with 20+ years old live rock and my nutrients keep bottoming out, to the point where my pulsating Xenia has all but disappeared and GSP won't even open. SPS are growing fairly well, to the...

I am interested in starting the moonshiners method on my reef tank. I have a ton of other ICP-OES testing kits. However, none are ATI kits. Can other ICP-OES test be used and still produce valid and accurate results? I would love to start the method using the box of 14 fauna Marin ICP tests...

I've needed to adjust my alkalinity levels manually since making a new mixture with BRS soda ash. The new bag has a 1 1/2 cup to 1 gallon ratio. The older bag was 2 1/3 to 1 gallon. Is there any way I can use a Hanna checker to measure the "strength" of the mixture? Can a certain measurement of...

R2R - Life changes have required that I abandon plans for a new build and tear up my existing system. I have 2 brand new sealed in box Apex Neptune DOS pumps available for $300 each shipped anywhere in the continental USA. These are great for dosing and automated water changes.

Setting up an extra set of tanks in aquarium room and looking for: - higher wattage heaters (heating ~250-300 gallons) - apex head unit, full system, and/or set of related probes, buildout boxes, etc.. - controllable dosing pumps (ideally apex comparable) need to setup 2 part and if I can find...

With my phosphate always at 0, I decided to shake things up this week—mixing 1/4 tsp of Reef Roids into 25ml of RODI and dosing 5ml daily. Sunday - 5ml Monday - 5ml Tuesday - 5ml Wednesday - 5ml Thursday - 5ml Friday 4pm - Results

When dosing sodium carbonate the calculator says to dose slowly, but I’m not sure how slowly. Can this happen over a 1 hour period or a 1 day period? Seems like a small amount and a small move in alk.
