Trying to learn reef chemistry before getting any corals
What I’ve learned is that TM AFR is great and best used with automatic doser. However at my country, it’s hard to find one and it’s crazy expensive.
Come across this video where Lou from TM talks about using AFR with ATO. Heres my problem, I’m not sure how to do the math on incorporating TM AFR in my reservoir
Example Scenario:
- 100 litre tank
- 10 litre ATO reservoir
- Requires daily 5 ml dosing of TM AFR
- Evaporate at 50ml daily
How do I incorporate TM AFR into ATO reservoir
What’s the math here, is it
10000ml/50ml = 200 days
Where one full reservoir can last me 200 days, that’s 200 times dosing
If 5ml AFR a day that’s 5mlx200times = 1000ml
If I were to fill my reservoir, I’ll fill 9litre RODI water and 1 litre of AFR.
Correct me if I’m wrong
