S2
The pic update shows were I'm at now after the issues I have added a doser to keep up with the calc usage rather than relying on the calc reactor.

You are getting great coloration from your SPS, what's your methodology and thinking on this? Feeding, nutrients, flow, PAR? Thank you.

Nutrients as low as possible, running circ reactor with pellets and 2 x rowa reactors
Feeding twice a day and rotifiers/mix at lights out
flow - lots I have 2 x gyres large and small, votec mp40 and a tunze on the back wall
PAR - it will be high but not measured it and placement by seeing how the corals like different spots .3 x orphek atlantics V3 and a radion g3 pro
I also run a dastaco calc reactor but have to supplement calc and mag due to high uptake I also use a KH guardian monitor/doser which keeps the KH stable and have a aquamedic computer and pinpoint probe monitoring the PH which allows me to see instantly if anything's going wrong
