Greetings reefers
Looking to make some upgrades to my system and I was just wondering what are the best purchases people have made for their tanks? Could be equipment, additives/supplements, livestock, anything..
I have a 29 g + 20 g sump, complete w/ Curve 5 protein skimmer, Green Killing Machine UV, 5 gallon refugium lit with stock Fluval Evo light, nitrate reactor, and ato system. 150w Aqueon Pro main heater, Tetra backup, controlled by an Inkbird. I have a 165w Viparspectra for lighting, so not looking to upgrade there. I have 2 hygger mini wave makers, set on random variable mode, and a VCA output on my ~350gph return. Eshopps PF-300 overflow (not drilled). I drip Kalk (currently 1 tsp/gal). Tank is fully stocked with a pair of True Percs, Blue Damsel, PJ Cardinalfish, Blue Fairy Wrasse, and Lawnmower Blenny. Also a Sand Sifting Sea Star, 15-20 Astrea Snails, 5-6 Turbos. For coral, I keep mostly soft. I love mushrooms, zoas, and duncans specifically. I really enjoy the motion that soft corals create.
The only thing I can think of to further improve the reef would be auto dosing 2-part Calc/Alk as I currently hand dose Red Sea's Foundation.
Maybe a better fuge light in the future depending how this one grows chaeto.
Anyways I would love some suggestions for furrher upgrades, and am very interested in everyone's favorite hardware, accessories, chemicals, gear, etc.
Thanks and Happy Reefing!
