Been reading articles here and on facebook for a long time and figured I would join. I've had fish only tanks for 30 years and last January I decided to start a reef tank. I've noticed lately the dosing demands have increased and was wondering how the dosers work and what brands work best. Tank is a 92 Cad Lights with sump and skimmer.

Welcome and beautiful reef!
 
That is a nice setup! What is your light schedule/settings for the a160s?

I just have them plugged in to timers. They come on at 8 am and turn off at 930 pm. The intensity is always at 100% on all 5. The only thing I change is the spectrum, all blue for the 1st and Last hour or so and right about the midpoint on the dials throughout the day.
 
What is that giant blue fish with spots? Some type of rabbit fish?
