100% right where you need to be nutrient wise.Honestly had no idea about light needs man. Dunno why but was thinking much higher par!
So they are ok with my params around .1 and 10-20.
How much alk do they use? And where do they like it?
The only Hanna checker I use is the alk because its super easy but only used it a cpl times now.
Lower light and flow will actually get torches to extend longer as they are looking for the light and flow hahah
The only reason you see higher par is to get vendor colors. Which is nice but not necessary.
Thats exactly where I keep my tank.
Po4 .1-.15
No3 15-20
Alk 8.5-9 yup daily swing and everything is fine
At first the torches won't use much alk but the more they grow the more you will see used.
in my 220 and with 30 torches, 6 meat corals, all the shrooms and a handful of other corals I only go through 48ml of alk a day.
when I started I just tested alk at 12, 6, 12 and 6 and recorded how much alk was used for the day. Then split that into as many dosing as I could throughout the day. Some times it is 4 sometimes it is 8. the more the better for stability.
And for me depends on who's home lol
The more stable the alk and nutrients stay the more growth I notice.
