Stock alternatives

[corinateut]

Hey there,

I’m owner of Red sea Max nano peninsula

1. Looking for alternatives of ATO (something to be a good fit with my little guy which is 100L) as right now I am not very happy with the stock ATO.

2. Any suggestions for dosing pump?
I was interested in Aqua Medic Reefdoser EVO 4 FOUR CHANNEL DOSING PUMP.

3. I’ m using red sea led 50
Curious of what settings do you use. (Good for you coral)
As right now I’m sticking just with one suggested from their library.


4. Any suggestions for Coral dip?

1. There are many alternatives, depends on what your'e looking for.
Some people simply put a large container next to the aquarium, others hide it inside furniture and there is also an option to connect your RODI straight to the system.

2. Most will fit your needs, those I personally liked and can recommend are from Red Sea, Kamoer and GHL.

3. Is there anything you want to know about it?

No worries :)

3. I don't use this light myself, however using one of the defaults is usually a good starting point and most likely you will not have to tweak it any further to get good results.
Make sure to mount the light according to the manufacturer recommendation.

4. There are more than 1 types of dips, and many companies that produce them.
Personally I use either Coral Rx by Blue life or Revive by TLF for pest control, and Seachem Iodine for bacterial infection.

When introducing new coral to the system it is also advisable to use a Turkey buster or a small pump to blow off any invisible pests that may be found on the tissue, as well as to examine the coral under a magnifying glass and looking for any eggs that might be found on the base.

I recommend looking into dosing Kalkwasser. Its the cheapest and one of the most effective solutions for calcium and alkalinity and also comes with a great ph boost which corals need to grow.
