How are My Numbers?

[Waffen06]

Recently added some sps for the first time. Currently have all zoas, lps, anemones. How do my numbers look and should I change anything?

Calcium is 400
Alk is 7.3
Ph is 7.8

Tank is a reefer 250, any suggestions? Just did a 10 gallon water change yesterday

Numbers look good to me. Maybe get that calcium up a tad. Congrats on your first sps, what are your no3 and PO4?

They look OK. I personally prefer alk a bit higher around 8.4 - 8.6 and I normally keep my calcium around 430-440.

I was debating adding kawk to my ato, would that be a good idea to raise those?

I would first measure PO4 and no3 before adjusting Alk I run my Alk under 8. If everything seems happy keep it where you have it.

Personally I don't use things in my ato, I dose things through a pump I like my ato as just pure ro water. There are many people on here who could advise you on dosing through your ato.

You tank looks good so it seems you have the right ideas
