Iv veen dosing phyto, everyday with the lights off, turn off the skimmer for 1 hour. I want to start amino acid as well. Can i add it the same time as phytoplankton?
 
That should be fine, yes. However for me I prefer daytime dosing of Phyto and aminos since the corals likely have a better uptake of both during the lights on. Phyto after-hours May be better for pods so I usually dose my Phyto around an hour before lights out and I dose amino anytime during the day, usually around feeding time.
 

IF YOU HAD TO OPERATE EVERYTHING ELSE MANUALLY, WHICH AUTOMATED SYSTEM WOULD YOU KEEP?
