Hey everyone,

I've been a follower of this forum for a year and I'm excited to finally join the community. I'm seeking advice on dialing in my reef and finding a second Radion xr15 Pro because my tank is currently under-lit.

My Waterbox 90.3 has been running for four months, but I'm facing difficulty in getting my corals to grow. Here's some information about my setup:

  • I use LiquaGen 7 stage RODI water and mix it with Reef Crystals instant ocean salt.
  • My refugium is running well on 12 hr opposite tank light cycle.
  • I feed my tank twice a day with rods frozen food.
  • My levels are: 0.01 phosphate (Hanna ULR), 15 nitrate (Red Sea), 0 nitrite (Red Sea), 0 ammonia (Red Sea), 8.7 alkalinity (Hanna), 1.025 salinity (Hanna Digital), 77°F temperature, 425 calcium (Hanna), and 1380 magnesium (Salifert).
  • two MP 40's at 15 %
  • Aquamaxx DFC 120 protein skimmer.
  • 1 Radion XR15 g5 Pro (need another)
  • Aquamaxx AF-1 filter fleece roller.
  • Auto top off, (forget what brand)
I think my next step is an ICP test, adding a light, PAR meeter test, and any suggestions or feedback from experienced members of this community would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
