Thank you for the kind words, a lot had happened for sure. And I love to ready how everyone handles their tanks. I like to keep it simple, but am currently looking at a dosing unit to keep levels stable and stop water changing weeklyGreat build thread! Awesome pics. You have gotten a lot done in 4 months. Don't be discouraged by the cyano. That is part of the journey. You are clearly a smart person, you'll do great! Welcome to the salty family!!
Like everything in the hobby, there are simple ways and complicated ways of doing everything. An ATO is a basic must...
Agreed, a Neptune system is for on the long run, for now let's start simple dosing of minor an mayor elements. Tbh I still don't have a ATO, but also on the list
Mine isn't connected at the moment because I am transitioning between one tank and an upgrade. I soooooo miss having my ATO. Once you get it, you won't look back. I bought two BRS 1.1 ml used on the Marketplace here. It has kept my Alk very stable. I don't feel compelled to get anything fancy right now. Dip a toe and see what you need as your experience grows. Sometimes you do not need to jump into the deep end when the kiddie pool will get the job done.
Hahaa, I totally believe you, now the every 3 days manual topping of is already starting to get old. The guys selling the dosing pump also sells an ato so I guess I'll look in to it
Welcome to R2R!!!
Welcome!Goodafternoon fellow reefers,
i've been a silent member for over a year now and my tank has been running since January 30th this year. so closing up on the 4 months mark.
the tank is a custom build ILA OpticWhite glass tank 100x50x50cm 250L display tank, with a 80x40x40cm 128L sump.
the stand is custom build and powder coated.
but of course i'll show all that in my build tread.
love to hear all critique
