What are you dosing these days? I have the balling stuff what want to switch to A4R for simplicity and for the sake of only using 1 of my 4 dosing pumps. What are your thoughts?

 

[PeterC99]

Just switched back to 2 part from A4R. Not sure what happened but was not able to keep parameters stable any more. Really like the simplicity of A4R but after 1 1/2 years of using it, something happened to the balance in my aquarium. Corals seem much happier now that I’m back to 2 part.

Not what I wanted to hear, but what I expected. Guess I'll just have to buy more dosing pumps when I need them. Thanks for the fast response, though! Your tank is AMAZING.

The A4R worked very well for 1 1/2 years. I would recommend it but be careful with it long term.

Just read through your timeline/thread - great job man. Are you balling with your two part?

I have a calcium reactor that supplies the base Alk/Calc 24/7 and dose B-Ionic 2 part during the day. Used to use A4R but after a 1 1/2 years it started giving me problems.
