I'm using only products developed and tested in our laboratory, may be one day they will be commercialized. I'm dosing daily 3 products: balanced two part, organic carbon and mix of 8 bioactive elements. Every six months I'm testing my water (ICP - Triton) and adjusting (if needed) Potassium, Strontium and Boron. I'm doing no water changes, because two part is ionic balanced.
great looking reef!!!
1. Bioload- I assume you must be feeding the fish? if so what food? also is the food metered (measured) accurately? or eyeballed...
2. you said no amino and no vitamins. On your Dec 23rd post you mentioned that you do dose amino. did you stop dosing amino?
3. you said you carbon dose. whats your export method? since you don't do water changes... is it skimming? anything else? how much do you export daily/weekly?
4. I see you have bare bottom (no sand). Are you siphoning detritus? vacuuming?
5. I too have read your comments in the Redfield thread. what do you keep Nitrate and Phosphates at? any particular ratio outside of Redfield?
6. are you feeding corals? any liquid foods? Phyto? oyster? other?
I would very much appreciate some pictures of the "behind the scenes' life support system.
Keep up the amazing work... CC
