Hi,
Hoping for some help/advice. I don't use any AF products for my 120G DT or 40G Frag tank. I am currently using BRS 2-Part dosing (Ca, Mg, ALK) along with supplements for the essential components. Use IO Reef salt along with BRS RO System as salt water source for both my tanks.
Scenario 1 -...
My favorite most helpful LFS closed and I'm having some issues with dosing calcium and alkalinity on my own! I dose a 2 part daily in my reef tank. My alkalinity is at 8.5 dKH (right where I want it) but my calcium blew up to over 500 ppm! I need to lower my calcium (I'd like to hit the 400...
For those that use Jebao Dosing Pump, I have quick questions.
So I have calibrated all 4 pumps with 100ml calibration and is currently trialing all 4 pumps with RODI water.
These past 2 days, I have noticed that the dose excreted by these pumps seems to be slightly over.
For example: pump #1...
So I've bought my first doser and am eager to get it going.
Have got sodium carbonate for kh, Calcium Chloride and Magnesium Chloride.
Have tried using various online calculators and think I know the maths to make the solutions. Reading around I think it's best to make the kh solution weak...

I'm trying to get the latest update on Brands/Type of Reef Supplements used by fellow reefers for auto-dosing in a SPS/LPS combo tanks.
For this discussion, please exclude the normal Calcium, Alk and Mg liquids, and 10% to 20% water changes.
Read a lot of discussions and on...
Let the reef science begin,
We have been reefing for a few years now with a 10 month break due to moving. Always for the longest time we have had phosphate control issues with difficulty in obtaining a nitrate level despite heavy feedings. Some have dosed nitrates in various forms along with...
There are many different ions in seawater, and as reef aquarists we generally only test for a small number of these. Calcium, magnesium, “alkalinity”, nitrate, phosphate, and ammonia, for example, are relatively easy for hobbyists to test at home using kits. Other ions, however, are more...
