Hello fellow saltines,
I saw a few threads lately of people asking for help with dosing copper and were asking for guidance on how much to use relattive to a tank's volume. @Jay Hemdal pointed out that dosing is based on the tank's displacement volume. I am so glad I read these threads because I wouldn't have thought of that. I'm in the process of starting my 5g build and want to get this figured out before everything is in the tank. Are the two primary weight factors sand and rocks? I can't think of anything else.
Also, I came across this fairly robust calculator. http://reef.diesyst.com/volcalc/volcalc.html. Has anyone tried it? Note: The page isn't phone friendly so you have to do a bit of pinching and expanding of the page. Haha.
Thanks!
