Hello,
I just finally set up my Reefbot and got everything working. I have a number of questions I could not find the answer to, I'm sorry if this is described somewhere and I missed it.
In no particular order:
1. I am assuming the length of the "tank" line needs to stay the same, I am guessing the device purges the line before each test. Just so I know, roughly how many mL of tank water are used/purged for an average test? How many in the 1m line? I'm asking in case overall salinity slowly drifts over time.
2. I have not cut the "waste" and "Rodi" lines but they are too long for my setup at the moment. Is it fair to assume they can be cut and their length does not matter?
3. The equipment came with an SD card, what is on it and what is it for?
4. Where was that webpage with the description of all the test and how many vials are needed for each? I currently run API nitrate, API Calcium, RedSea Alk, RedSea phosphate and to my delight have the 8th vial spot open, any one vial test I could add there?
5. What happens when I run out of syringes and needles? I work in the medical field so I can get some more easily but for most people whats the preferred approach to get more supplies?
6. The device says it is calibrated, after how many test should I be thinking about re-calibrating it?
