First stupid mistake made last night but no apparent issues this morning.
I dose 10ml of alk and ca twice a day on this system to maintain a dkh of 7.
I have been dosing alk to all 3 systems then go back and dose ca.
I will be going back to alk and ca additions on one system at a time.
After dosing all 3 system I dosed 10ml of alk again in the nano and frag system.
Frag was at 8 dkh this morning so no adds.
Nano cube was at 9.5 dkh and was probably over 10 last night.

So this morning everything looks good and I will wait until alk gets back to 7 before continuing dosing schedule.

I have a brand new Jebao 4 head doser sitting in the closet that I may hook up. Its 3 years old but never used.

nice cube tank! How you feel about the flow in the cube tank? I have a 60 gallon cube and I alway feels like there are dead spots or just not enough flow

I run a jebao 0w25 and it has plenty of flow, probably more than I need.
The key is to run a wave mode or random mode so the flow is always changing.
I would run 2 ow40's or similar on the 60 cube.
Powerheads with more flow can always be turned down.

Here is a pic of the green slimer nub I glued to the back wall. It is encrusting well now with visible growth.

Few more growth pics from today.
Had to trim the pavona on the back again to keep it from overtaking the entire back wall.
Trimmed a few sticks so they wont touch.
9 days away from 7 months.

Looks great! Surprisingly, my favorite piece is that stylo on the back wall! Love the growth pattern.
