Hello R2R community. I've been reefing since 2012 and took a break for a gap of about 2 years due to living situations. Finally got set up again and decided to set up for propagation this go around as that what was I always enjoyed, fragging and watching corals grow. My current setup is a 75 gal frag tank built from scratch with a feed trough (6x2x1) plumbed into a 20gal sump with 4 hydor wavemakers on a hydor wavemaker controller, a hydor ATO, large skimmer, 3x 300watt full spectrum LEDs, and a jabao dp-4 doser. I run the Triton method and dose trace elements, aminos, NOPOX, nitrate (neonitro) and ocassionally some po4 and calcium/magnesium/strontium if needed. Parameters are 0ppm ammonia 0ppm nitrite 3-10ppm nitrate and 0-0.03 phosphate 8-9 DKH alk 1.024-1.025 salinity 440ppm calcium. Here are some photos of my setup and some corals...happy reefing and thanks for having me!!!!
