Setting up a tank as described in the title. I dos one sps tank and have a reactor on the other. This tank will focus on shrooms, zoas and a few lps. Will weekly water changes be enough or do I need another doser?

Softy you could probably get away with, but if you have enough LPS they'll still use up a sizeable amount of calcium/alkalinity as they grow.

You'll probably be able to get away with just routine water changes then.

Routine water changes will be just fine even in a tank with most lps. I have a euphilia dominant tank and so far their thriving in the tank. It's a 70 gal and all I do are weekly-bi weekly 10 gal water changes
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
