This works great for me. I’m usually mixing 50-60 gallons at a time. Tells me how many pounds of salt to use. Guess you could also do it by volume of salt.

I still do a 1/2 cup at a time. Adding a bunch at once can precipitate itThis works great for me. I’m usually mixing 50-60 gallons at a time. Tells me how many pounds of salt to use. Guess you could also do it by volume of salt.

Here is mine. It’s still basing out, but coloring pretty good. Looks like it will have a great circular growth pattern when all those little white branch tips take off.
Good idea. I did notice a little bit of precipitate yesterday with the AF. But I was dumping in 1-cup at a time. I’ll try 1/2 cup at a time, next time.
Nice. Mine isn’t basing out quickly at all.Here is mine. It’s still basing out, but coloring pretty good. Looks like it will have a great circular growth pattern when all those little white branch tips take off.
I mix pro with blue bucket ~1000 grams pro to 730 grams blue bucket on 10 gallons. Mostly to knock down the alk a little.
Something I’ve learned with SBB Tenius. When I first started getting them, I would baby them with moderate light (300-350 PAR). The ones I’ve gotten in the last 4 months, I acclimate them and immediately put them in 400+ PAR. Since I started doing that, they just take off with growth Immediately and maintain or increase their color.
I’m thinking about switching to Radions at the end of the year. Do you still like yours? Did you go XR30 blue?
Gaydions.
Now they don’t make cents.
Same setup..mine is 25" tall I think.
also i use a 200 micron bag that i put the salt into. I also use a 2oo micron when going into the tank.
Lol.
Who'd you have build? I'm looking at Tropical Aquarium Mfg out of Miami, I also plan to plug my livewell and an extra cooler on my boat on the weekends to smuggle water from the ocean into my living room. No shot i'm buying that much salt, I barely do 10 gallons a month as it is.
I bought mine used at a steal. Already drilled so that's why I ran plumbing the way I did and had modular marine custom make some overflows. I would have preferred one 72" overflow with returns coming in on the outsides of it but I had to work with what was there. The guy I got it from never set it up and bought it in tampa...no idea who made it...its beastly though.
Yes, still have the 4 XR30 G5 Blues. It’s hard to find a spectrum blend that I like for color when taking pictures, but that just may be my iPhone. Apple tinkered with their camera software and it’s marginal at best now. TSA, WWC and Shane all use radions. If it’s good for them, I’ll stay with them. I definitely can’t complain about the growth I get with them. Plus, I’ve only got them at 50% power and getting 500 PAR across the top Acro’s. They’ve worked really well since I got them.
That’s thing is a beast. And that pic is a friendly reminder to myself that I’m playing with fire by not having a generator/inverter.I bought mine used at a steal.

Nice. I’ll just need to decide on Blue vs Pro and how many to cover 48”x24”x24”.
