Starting a new tank and looking for guidance. Ive had one 2yr basic pico mixed reef with great success, and one huge fail with a 20 gallon higher tech mixed reef (brooklynella combined with acidic premix salt). Looking for some feedback on salt mix and ideal parametwrs for my goal of stocking with some high end lps/sps and growing out for a 130 gallon build in about 18 months, then this will become my office tank:
-15 IM Fusion Cube w stand
-Hyger wave mini powerhead
-NooPsyche K7 mini (supposedly better par and spread than ai 16hd, at $93 shipped worth a try)
-Bubble Magus MiniQ
-ATO w .7 gallon resevoir
- fiji pink sand
-Caribsea liferock
My thought is to go zero dosing to keep it simple and use red sea coral pro to get my trace elements (5 gallon water change 3-4x a month)
Or
Start out with red sea salt initially, and then do my waterchanges with red sea coral pro to start with not such high alk
Thank you in advance!
