Trident FAQ

[MnFish1]

lol. why didn't we think of that :rolleyes:. You are pretty clearly missing the issues here.

Again. One of the key people with Triton are using custom complex code as posted above to solve this issue so it is real despite your trivializing. Adding intervals = more intervals to update which makes updating a real pain.

But - you haven't explained why they are doing it - when there are simpler options or? Perhaps Tim Triton had some time on his hands and likes developing code?

Actually I have but I'll repeat and post more evidence from yet another manufacture - this time Aqua Forest. Guidelines for dosing vary by manufacture but here is an extreme example from Aqua Forest that calls for a 1 hour gap between dosing solutions. Can you please explain to me how simply putting your dosing lines in separate locations will provide similar results as an hour long delay between dosing?

Further, I've been dosing Triton for quite a while now and never had problems with precipitation until my dose became very high relative to my water volume as the tank matured and coral / coralline became dense. So while many might be able to get away with either dealing with some minor precipitation or not having any due to relatively low stocking / dose, the struggle is real for those of us using products like Triton etc. for dense SPS reefs that are 100% reliant on dosing (no water changes etc). I'm currently tracking to spend about $1500 per year on core 7 for a 165g tank and would prefer not to waste it to precipitation.

Additionally, as already explained, Triton recommends dosing Core 7 Full Triton into the algae fuge to promote better algae growth and nutrient reduction. Again this is not unfounded and I have seen similar results. Moving dosing locations is at odds with this directive.

Thanks. Most people have all of their output lines close together. If they are apart there shouldn’t be a huge reason to wait an hour. For example. My soda ash output goes into the sump right near the return. The calcium goes into the sump near the filter socks. The flow in my tank is such that within 10 minutes everything is mixed and I have no precipitation. So while I wouldn’t necessarily run them together. I wouldn’t worry about running them 10 minutes apart. Frankly it’s probably fine to run them at the same time if there is enough separation and enough flow. Jmho

How loud it the trident compared to say the dos?

 

[ryboy707]

How’s everything going with NSI testing? Any news? Hopefully smooth and any problems are being handled expeditiously

We really want to know is if there will be enough Tridents on the initial release to cover the demand or will we all be waiting for the company to restock before we can actually get our hands on one.

+1. I'm hoping to get 3 units initially.... will that be difficult out of the gate or should we plan on an abundant supply?

 

[1Blazer]

Hoping they will have enough for the launch but that seems like a difficult number to gauge unless they actually release some information to retailers to begin preorders. @Bulk Reef Supply any news on your end regarding release or when we may be able to order the trident?

Wife says no homewrecker or waltdisney till i get a trident to monitor tank levels :)
Bring on the trident!!!

Hallelujah! I hear 4 weeks??!

Hallelujah! I hear 4 weeks??!

If that’s true I wish they would just come out and announce it

 

[Dan Snyder]

What source?

 

[kkiel02]

It’s better to not announce it in case of a set back.

 

[boltzfan]

Can we please preorder somewhere if were only 4 weeks away or so?

 

[NeveSSL]

Are you all serious? Worse than little kids. [emoji23]

Me! xD

There is an old saying " You can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink".

You are correct, you cannot force it to drink but you can drown it. ;)

Im new to SPS and the WD is pretty hardy from my experience. I was an idiot and threw it and a another on a frag rack and stuck it at the top of the tank in 450 PAR and its color just took off and looked great. The other had to spend 2 weeks on the sand bed to recover.

I look forward to my Neptune Apex overlord!
