It looks like you are off to a nice start! How long has the tank been setup?

Thank you. The tank has been up for about 4 months but I have had the rock for 20 years.

I added the Tunze Osmolator 3155 and couldn't be happier. The tank likes the consistency and I can actually go away without worrying that someone will forget to add water to the tank.

My tank is doing great, thank you!
I watched every vid o and it really helped. I have had salt water fish tanks for years but never coral so I got to bypass establishing the bacterial part, my tank was already cycled. I have followed pretty much everything else. Lighting set up, parameters, which fish to get first, corals, etc.
R2R has also been a great resource, lots of reefers and it’s a great community. I’m hooked again!

Added a Tunze Osmolator ATO to my system. I was adding 82 ounces of water every day and I love not having to worry about this, best add so far.
I also added a Kamoer X1 Pro Dosing Pump add provide calcium. Such an easy set up and again very convenient.

I bought a two Kamoer Remote dosing pumps and they seem to be working well. I dose 11.5 mL of alkalinity a day, 9 mL of calcium per day, and 6 mL of magnesium per day. Parameters have been stable, small minor adjustments here and there.
It amazing to me how fast everything grows.
