DIY containers save your money guys, U$ 4 each.
I Like fancy stuff but for dosing I am not going to pay that much.

So this is what I did:

Nice reef!
What is your daily consumption of fusion?

 

[Hysa]

Daily auto dosing

Fusion 1 = 30ml (15 times 2 ml GHl)
Fusion 2 =28 ml (14 times 2ml GHl)

Great looking tank! Awesome pics. What a beautiful display you got there!

 

[ifarmer]

such a beautiful tank. too bad the led is killing your corals.
if I were you, I would switch to either T5 or MH to give those SPS a better color.

Very nice! Love your stand as well!

Welcome. Beautiful system

 

[exactlyobp]

Beautiful tank. Great images too. Im surprised MP10s are sufficient in your system. Keep up the great work!

Actually to get better flow had to add a Rw8 Jebao + aqualink near the surface to get more flow (not the best but works) future upgrade will be MP40 s (out of money right now)

I saw the extra pump after i posted it. Ive had good experience with RW8s. MP40s would be ideal. Good thing that its working out for you tho.
