Hey All
I have a 30 gallon tank with a 20 gallon sump.
Total volume is probably 35-40 gallons.
Tank is about 2 months old and I’ve had the UV running for about 1 month. I have a MP40 running at 5% on reef crest.
I’ve been dosing phyto and pods everyday since week 3. I have gfo, a nyos 120 skimmer, and a fuge running and growing macro. I’m going to start dosing mb7 tomorrow.
My nitrate and phosphates are 1 ppm and 0.009 ppm. Both tested with Hanna. I need to get them up a little.
Im starting to see minimal Dino form on the sand bed and a little on the rock. The turbo and crabs take care of a lot of it.
Im just wondering what the best flow rate I should run for my 57 watt UV. I know it’s a bit oversized for the tank volume, so I really don’t know what rate to run it. All this equipment came off my 225 gallon tank lol.
thanks
