Very little, I can't remember off hand. Probably 10ml of alk and 4-5 of calcium. I've not dosed the tank in a while now, no reason to with very little live stock.

Adam with @Battlecorals ran a 25% off sale (it may still be going on!!) so I had to jump in. I've always wanted corals from him so this was the chance. I bought a battle box and let him pick all 10 pieces, he threw in an extra!

You talked me into it! Too good a deal to pass up for sure.

Nice chunky frags... Good to see he doesn't send frags the size of boogers.

I told myself this week I was going to get a battle box, I just didn’t know when!
I’ve not read anything negative about battle corals ever, and I follow his sub-forum a lot. Hopefully I can grow these out!

New T5 bulbs are in, probably should have done 2 at a time. But I like to live dangerously. Front back to front - Blue+, Actinic, Blue+, Actinic.

I've been testing alk daily, for 2 days now it has been 8. Two days may not seem like a big deal, to me it is. I'm not chasing the numbers I am chasing consistency. I've brought the ESV B-Ionic back online dosing 6ml of alk.
Yesterday I purchased a small bucket of RedSea blue bucket, keeping SPS and doing water changes I just can't use the Coral Pro anymore allowing it to swing my parameters. The search continues on Kalk for me, I have the kalk although none is mixed up. I prefer to dose it VS putting in my ATO. However, dosing it requires another dosing pump that I don't currently have. There is still more research to do!
After watching @shiftline Youtube video I put some pictures in snapseed and adjusted the warmth -

3 Questions:
WHAT IS THAT CRAB?!? So beautiful!
How much longer did you make your new pipe? How did you decide where to place the gate valve on the pipe?Water change done! Take a look at the inside of the RedSea valve, new gate valve is installed!
Fish pictures!
