Dosing system is done... this way I can easily monitor or skip dosing...

That’s 100% the look I was going fore.. I wanted the be “hands on” and proactive with my parameters.. it’s also “stupid proof”. I can easily reduce or skip a dose of vinegar or TPE+ and switch for regular TPE..

I test my nitrates and phosphates every 2-3 nights.. it’s pretty easy when you have 100l tank and it’s all based 100L. My ALK never swings ands tests regularly at 40/ 9.3, which seems to be the mushroom sweet spot.. not dosing part A and B at all.... the TPE balances it all out

Skipping a WC
Nitrates just below 5 and phosphate FinaLLY barely detectable

Love the TPE+ with 1ml vinegar...
I feed phyto, amino marine snow, reef roids.. target feed once a week... use the skimmer to pull it out.. always fresh food

Have a billion copepods, running right... the six line gets 1 krill a day.. hunts all morning
