Seeking responses from seasoned reefers who have employed multiple approaches. We are talking about the simplest supplementation method for a novice hobbist to understand and apply, not the optimal one.

How to Start Dosing Calcium, Alkalinity and Magnesium in Reef Tanks If you're ready for SPS, or even some LPS coral and need to maintain stable calcium and alkalinity, this is for you! Link: How to Start Dosing Calcium, Alkalinity and Magnesium in Reef Tanks Don't make critical mistakes...

Switched over to Kalk a few months back and have these sitting in my closet. $25 for one set (1 gallon alk/1 gallon cal) Or take them both for $40 Pick up in Woodbridge NJ 07095 Sorry NO SHIPPING

I read a great article talking about 2 part dosing. My tank is a 150 and 4 months old. It will eventually be a mixed reef but right now it is soft coral dominated I guess. I am not sure if I learned a lesson with SPS as I had a few die. It may be because the tank is new or that I have yet...

I've spent some time looking to no avail. I'm dosing Alk, Vinegar, Ca, and Iron on a regular basis. I run mag up a little higher than "normal" (1450 or so) and let it deplete down to 1350 ish. Mag depletes slowly enough that I dont want to chance dosing it on a schedule, and it doesnt seem to...

Hello all, I just finally took the plunge into the world of apex and I’m so glad I did. It is a lot to take in However. I am currently having a little bit of trouble programming my dosing pumps and corresponding powerhead in my sump. I actually think I have the dosing figured out but I will...

I have a brand new unopened Bubble Magus BM-T11 I would like to sell as well as the BRS bulk 2 part package. I have changed my mind I want to go the route of using a calcium reactor instead of 2 part. asking $300 OBO

In my 120 gallon I have 32 Acro frags (3 about yr old mini colonies now, and the rest new within the last 3 months), along with a couple montis, snails, and finally starting to see the start of some coraline algae growing on the glass. I picked up a DOS about 2 months ago and switched over to...

Having just acquired a Neptune DOS, I have to find the two-part solutions to use in it. In the USA this looks easy, from BRS. But here in the UK finding a decent supply of calcium chloride and sodium carbonate through an aquarium shop is proving difficult (at least, I'm failing to find one)...

Sorry about silly question here: When I mix up BRS 2 part solutions, can I double the amount of product while keeping the rodi liquid amount the same? My goal is to double the potency so I can decrease by 1/2 the volume dosed per day. (Example: DOS doses 200mL calcium and 150mL buffer daily...

I've been dosing Brightwell Aquatics Reef Code A & B for about a week now. Learned that I need to dial up my dose but also wanted to bring my Calcium and Alkalinity up generally, and in reading the advanced instructions I'm a bit confused. Reef Code A (Calcium) instructions read: "If the...

Hey Reefers! Today we've got a quick fix to changing over from dosing 2-part to your tank to running a full Calcium Reactor setup. Through the help of Jdieck's Calcium Reactor Calculator Ryan explains how to test your effluent, input the data into the calculator and dial in your dose to...

My alk Rides between 7- 7.6 and calc around 420-430. I have been using kalk in my ATO to maintain calcium and alkalinity levels and my SPS have been growing nicely but I feel like its not as stable as it could be. My 75g evaps about 1 gallon/day. I like the idea of adding 2 part to get my alk up...

Hi, I have one lightly used "BRS 2 Part Doser - 1.1 ml Per Minute" for sale. I used the pump to dose Alkalinity to my nano tank for about 3 months, but recently replaced with a 4-head dosing pump. It ran ~45 minutes per day during that 3 months, so the pump has a total run time of about 70...

Hey all, Hopefully this is the right place on the forum to ask. I have been using kalk on my ATO and frankly that just doesn’t work for me. It’s completely inconsistent and I can certainly attribute this for random losses on occasion. Last week I lost 2 really nice across due to a spike and I...

I'm not sure if and when I should start dosing BRS 2 part daily with a doser. My tank (160 gal Display / 40 gal sump) is about 5 months old and is stocked with the following: 1 Hammer coral (5 heads) 1 Torch coral (3 heads) 6 Clown Fish 15 Trochus snails 20 Certh snails Ca = 350 dKH = 8.4 Mag...

Ok everyone, i need some advice/help with my frag tank. I am not seeing very good growth. Most corals seem ok but not flourishing like I would have hoped. I am wondering if PH is the problem??? First a little info. Tank is a 45 gal peninsula ( approx 12 inches deep) draining into a 20 gal...

Hey everyone, I was curious what your favorite 2 part is? I currently use Seachems Reef Fusion 1 and 2 . What do you use and why do you like it?

hello so i fed this afternoon and turned off my pumps manually through my apex and i forgot to turn them back on before i left my house. My doser put about 65 ml of BRS 2 part and it precipitated in my sump. Feeling super dumb right about now lol. Had a big ph spike but came down already. Any...

I am dosing BRS 2 part, but the rates I'm dosing at seem rather high compared to what I can find referenced in videos/forums and I seem to get white calcium deposits on pumps and heaters, even tank walls rather quickly I have a 75 gallon system with LPS only 1.025 salinity 8.05 pH 7.5 DKH 440...
