Superb! I’m waiting for my new house and will be a Red Sea reefer build. Shall go with full aqua forest system too!

Are you on the balling method? Per day 250ml of each component seems a lot

Currently using component strong mix in kh cal and Mag. Yup used a lot. But weird is Mag only put 50g and 25g mineral salt dose like 50ml per day to maintain Mg 1400.
Kh will be killing me 220ml per day to maintain kh8.3.
After finished component strong will start use component ABC
My advice start low and test result daily to know more about your tank consumption. [emoji846]
When it hits the sweet spot of the result it will stays there

You mean component 1+2+3+?
It’s will cost a lot more in the Long run compared to mixing your own components. I calculated the pre mixed 123 can last about 20 days.

What’s the difference mixing your own and the premixed? Traced elements?

Example component 1+ Premixed only 5L our place cost rm2xx for my tank only last for 5weeks
If AF calcium powder is 850gram own mix 50g for 1L
able Mix 17L (20 weeks) for 1+ cal powder rm5x + component strong box rm12x each 5ml use for 1L can use for 15times to mix 5L water

Now component strong finished and will start using component ABC
I brought component ABC 2L rm5xx for abc and each dose 44ml perweek can last me for 45weeks for my 240G
Kh , cal & mag will be separated dose

Wow, thats a lot lof light! Big $$$$

[emoji39] that’s why I gotta sell off 2 hydra52hd to get 1 of this Atlantik V4.

The color of the sps superb nice !
Now I don’t need to put on orange filter to snap the corals color for my iPhone6+ and it makes more PE on sps as well
