do you dose your corals?

Yes. I use Aquaforest chemicals for this tank and once a week, I manually add a little triton core 7 to it. Just added a few new pieces yesterday and more this afternoon as I look to complete this tank and move on to next project

nice! thanks! I am considering Aquaforest as well. May I ask, what is the average cost per year for dosing with Aquaforest?(I understand if you do not wish to answer this question) and do you recommend the premixed or the powder? im trying to figure out a cost effective, but quality product for my aquarium.

What did you add? Pics? Btw, I had a purple Matchbox Corvette as a kid. The 1969 redline edition.

I love the contrast with the skylit image. It is amazing how different they look with the same exact aquascape. Also cool to see what sticks out in both pictures and what doesn’t.
