I can't single out a dosing pump that has a reverse functionality and was wondering if anyone could list a few. Size doesn't really matter as long as it can be automated to pull fluid back into the reservoir after pushing it into the aquarium. The idea is that you can auto dose refrigerated...
Is it possible to dose phosphate during the optimal period of the daily photo cycle, based on the best time corals are known to absorb phosphate from the water? Then to keep it from climbing, and reduce the time spent monitoring, remove the phosphate daily, with a GFO reactor on a timer, running...
Hi folks. So I know that you shouldn’t mix your alk and calcium 2 part up in your top off water because one will cause the other to precipitate. I also know that rate of evaporation isn’t exact so it won’t be exact amounts dosed if done through top off water, but…
what about for supplements...
Welp, I had a feeling this was going to happen but this is the situation I’ve gotten myself into. I found myself being extremely inconsistent with dosing Red Sea’s AB+ amino acid and looked for something that could be a more automated solution. I settled on Aquaforests amino acid they offer...
Advanced Acrylics 4-Chamber Premium Dosing Container I only used briefly.
16x6x12, each chamber can hold little more than a gallon
Locline bulkheads included, but looks like 3 of the 4 bulkheads need collets (or bulkheads replaced if you can’t find just the collet. They’re about 4$ea at Home...
Hello guys I’m here since I KNOW I shocked my corals I just want to figure out which thing I specifically did to shock my corals or if it was a mixture of it. So the basic run down,
I tested my tank and saw that my PH was incredibly low, (7.5) my magnesium was low as well (1080) my phosphates...
I’ve created a regime to really dial in my parameters. It involves daily dosing:
-0.4g kh buffer (unsure of brand)
-16g magnesium (seachem dry)
Haven’t got a calcium supplement yet.
Can people recommend good/better brands?
Am I better to stick to something like all-for-reef?
I feel like...
Hello,
TLDR - Do you prefer daily dosing KH (or others) in larger amounts at less frequent intervals? Or do you prefer dosing smaller amounts throughout the day at more frequent intervals?
I have a 91g that I just set up a couple of months ago. Only have around 9 corals in it currently, and...
I run a Red Sea reefer 525 xl
I’m currently dosing
90ml alk (Red Sea brand)
10ml calcium( Red Sea brand)
0ml magnesium( Red Sea brand)
is that’s dosing ratio typical?
My target numbers are
calcium 450 currently at 499
Alkalinity 9.5 currently 7.94
Magnesium 1400 currently at 1438
i can’t...
Selling my Dos pumps. It’s been sitting in the box on a shelf for about a year and a half now since I switched over to the versa system. This Dos works perfectly and is in great shape. $215 shipped anywhere in the U.S.
Note - I don’t use PP anymore. Zelle or Venmo preferred.
BioBase is the only supplement I still dose by hand every day which is tedious. I really want to dose it automatically as well but my pump is only good for fractions of 0.1ml. Currently I need to dose 0.36ml though. So my question is basically: If I wanted to dose it automatically (especially...
Hello!
I have a gently used Neptune DoS that I am selling now that I have swapped it for Versa pumps. The Dos has a manufactured date of "Nov 21" and was purchased on Jan 31st, 2022 from BRS. The DoS was in use for 4 months and ran only at its slowest setting to reduce noise level and extend...
Neptune systems dos. Only used about 6 months. Comes with everything you need. Also have some BRS pharma balling method bulk items if interested. Message me with any questions. Will ship with paypal
Is there anyone who uses just All-for-Reef for their SPS?
I am trying to keep things simple with SPS before getting into it. But is it even possible to just use A-F-Reef dosing for SPS?
So after 10 years I finally decided to get an auto doser. Now i was tracking my alk and calcium for 4 days to find out how much to dose daily and i saw a trend where my alk drops 0.3 a day. Calcium is abit weird. Anyway today was the 5th day of testing. First day alk was 8 then 7.7 then 7.3 then...
Hello guys, I’ve got a question regarding aquaforest calcium. They say to dissolve in 1L water and dose 100ml per 100L of tank water. Well my tank is 100L and me adding 100ml of water a day to raise the calcium by 18 is gonna make my tank overflow lol. They say you can make it concentrated so...
