Which pump is best/easiest to use and maintain parameters? From my understanding the X1 only allows dosing 12 times a day while the X1 Pro allows dosing 24 times a day. We have a 125 gal display and a 40 gallon sump with about 110 gallons of water total, minus rock, sand, refugium, and all equipment. We don’t have a super high demand for dosing at the moment because we are just now getting into corals heavily, have about 15 corals total. Which dosing pump would be best for our system? We do plan on having a heavily stocked mixed reef system within the next year or so but have been taking it slowly to ensure the best possible outcome for all life that goes into our little ocean. We recently purchased Kalkwasser to add to our ATO to start out but I’m not understanding how it maintains both calcium and alkalinity at the levels you want by just dosing one amount. If we add 2 1/2 cups of Kalk and it keeps our calcium where we want it but it doesn’t quite keep our alk high enough, how do you get the alk to where you want without making the calcium too high? We are super new to dosing so could really use some help! HELP! Lol.
