I'm setting up a water mixing station in my garage. I'll have RO/DI & Salt Mix. I'm going to ATO & Auto Change from there. I'm building out approximately a 265 gallon system. I wanted to make sure I only have to mix salt water once per month at most, so trying to figure out appropriate sizing for my reservoirs for ATO & Salt Mix.
About how many gallons/day should I be looking to continuously change? My math says 20% water change monthly = 1.7 gallons; I'll probably do 1.5 gallons/daily, 30 days, add 20% for safety and a 55 gallon reservoir should be good.
Anybody have thoughts? I'll be running a refugium, skimmer and 2 part dosing. Primarily SPS & fish in the tank.
Does the 1.5 gallon/day make sense? Is there a different advise than 20% monthly when doing continuous water changes?
