insulated lines to try and keep phyto from getting too warm. Dosing unit up top using the 3rd channel. Dosing 54ml daily.

output line to directly in the return area. Also insulated. Return a little low on water that day. :). Didn’t top off the top off.

The heater pictured is not used. I just store it that chamber. Lol.

Here are my other additives Ca, Alk and Mg. Plus the UV. I took the Mg offline and used the last channel on the doser for phyto. Water changes keep up on the Mg and I don’t have to add it.

I took the chiller out of the wall space. Didn’t need it.

I no longer dose phyto. So that part of the Cabinet is all the empty flasks. But here’s a top down from yesterday. This is before the daylight came on and from the end of the peninsula.

Mg is back online also. Still have the UV running. Got a new bulb after a year. I have also put the CO2 scrubber back in. Huge difference now. I have to admit alk on my trident days 6.5.
