Hello,
I finally got my tank fully ready for acropora and so far so good!
I am running everything to the book and parameters as well:
alk 8.0
Magnesium 1350
Nitrates 5
PO4 - .01
Calcium - 420
Sg - 1.026
I am running Aquaforest and also vodka dosing. I recently acquired 10 sps corals and they are doing awesome, even showing signs of growth on the base with major polyp extension. You have no idea my excitement. This is literally my dream.
I’ve tested all parameters above daily at 9:30pm when my T5s shut down and LEDs run only. They always test the same and it’s been 4 days since I introduced the 10 frags. I haven’t dosed anything (I’m going to dose Aquaforest 1 2 and 3).
I am assuming that for now, just do water changes or manually add components 1 2 and 3 as my test kits tell me until I can no longer keep up and have to run my doser, is that right? If so, how much time do you think has to pass for me to get to that level? I’m getting tired of testing every night haha. But I’ll do it if I have to.
