[QUOTE="Ef4life, post: 10727157, member: 148422"] I prefer simple low tech setups, i dose my main reef and frag system manually once a day, it helps me keep eyes on The system daily, I do visual fish checks every mornings, give at least a quick look over of all the frags and corals. Make sure pumps are flowing properly, check and change filter socks as needed. I do have an ato on it so that takes care of that but everything else is manually done by me. I currently don’t even run a skimmer anymore, I have been dosing nitrate and phosphates trying to get the levels up, I replaced it with an airstone just to aerate the water and help gas exchange. Noticeable ph drop without the skimmer my other 2 tanks I just run a dosing pump as an ato, I mix in a bit of kalk, it makes a nice setup without much fear of overdose like a typical kalk/ato can have. I have wifi power strips I use to set timers and turn pumps on/off for feeding my main setup[ATTACH type="full"]2882203[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
