Hi Kat,

what are you dosing in your tank?

Hi Kat,

what are you dosing in your tank?

Hi Asher. I have 2 part on dosers.
I manually dose magnesium, strontium, potassium, iodine and I recently started manganese. The hand dosing is not a daily thing.

I just love the simplicity and beauty of your tank! Not to busy... Just elegant :)

:D Thank you. It's got a bit of negative space in there so it looks alright. And now and then when I splurge on corals I try to sell some to make room but it is pretty full and only going to get fuller as the colonies grow larger.

Sunlight finally reached the tank today. I had been watching it slowly creep closer to the tank as springtime was approaching.

I find it captivating that pink corals don't fluoresce with actinics yet are the only ones that look colorful in natural sunlight. My red dragon was looking awesome. And for some reason the Cali Tort has a distinct magenta to it in natural light. I'll have to observe more tomorrow and maybe take pictures if I can avoid getting a shadow.

I actually saw this a while back and really fell in love with the way it looks!

And on one of the stand alone lower rocks I want a garden that looks like this!

But that's about as far as I've gotten ;)

I love my zoa garden. I have to prune it as there are some zoas that are more invasive than others and will crowd out the slower growers. So you have to get in there and help out the slow pokes.

That's sweet. I use BRS for my 2 part but I'm considering switching to something else, maybe ME.

Maybe it's just me, but I can see more depth in the natural sunlight pic.
