Hi all,

I'll be soon starting my first reef aquarium after 15 years off. My previous experience was keeping saltwater tanks as a teenager with my dad. It's been fun to start reviving all that knowledge in the last few weeks, as well as learning how things have changed (dosing phosphate and nitrates? :eek:). Still grateful from learning a lot from my dad (he worked as a marine biologist), but I'm looking forward to be setting off on an independent build where I don't have to share the decision-making :) Hoping to be more active once there's water in it.

Chris

Welcome Back. Alot has improved especially finding good skimmers at a good price and affordable options for propeller pump.. I feel dosing PO and NO has come about due to this improvement and using Dry rock.
Definitely noticed all the propellor pumps. I also don't remember dosing pumps being all over. Used to dose using a medical feeding pump off of eBay.

Yes you are right most ppl dosed by hand or had a CA reactor. I love dosing pumps so easy to calculate and adjust with BRS 2 part calculator - they literally made it dummy proof so look into that.
