The reactor really didn't keep up with demand? What setup did you have (I may have missed it)? I have always thought of reactors to be able to handle maximum consumption more efficiently relative to dosers.

Is that a chaeto reactor? Maybe feed the low pH drip to the intake of the chaeto reactor. Chaeto will love the co2

Yeah this cheato reactor really helps a lot to bring down my po4 from 0.09 to 0.02 or sometime 0.00
Each time clear whole bunch of cheato and put only 5cm size in there.

Tooks only 2weeks will fully grow packed d.

My CR running rowalith C+ where the media every 2 months doesn’t fluidize well and I’m lazy guy to do maintenance every time have to take it out n wash those small rocks from rowalith
My plan is less maintenance as possible.
My tank already touch 4 months no Water change at all d and everything grows.

Jaison, your tank looks awesome. Hope you get over your Kh problem soon. Definitely your pictures looks good but I believe that seen in person is another stuff. By the way how is your FOT??? Your tank is coming closer to the one year anniversary, if I'm right??? Congratulations!!!

Cool, those are good news for your Kh problem. In the other side so sad to hear about your FOT you used to have beautiful fishes in there. But definitely a frag tank will help you a lot when you get into fragging you Drop Tank, and growing new colonies for the DT. Well take care and keep us updated as you can.
