30 ml Cal
10 ml Mag
5 ml of trace elements
Parameters are :
salinity 1026
Alk 8.1
Cal 420
Mag 1280
no3 is 5 ppm
po4 is 0.02
Lighting is ATI power module 10×54w and 2 Kessil 360x tuna blue .
2 bulbs on for 9 hours , 8 bulbs on for 7 hours.
kessil are 12 hours (3 hours of sunset, 3 hours of sunrise) .
Lights are hang 27 cm above water surface.
