New CADE 1800 S2 just set up

[rsaltzmann]

I just got my Cade 1800 s2 set up and running (Day 4). I have a lot to learn as I am new to the hobby. I am running Hydros controllers, and reef Octopus pumps and skimmer. I made the mistake of trying to run a separate pump to run the UV and it was pushing water through the main pump. So now I have a Varios 4 that will be un-used and just did a closed loop off the main pump. Any feedback would be great.

Looks good! I can't help you with all automation. I keep it simple. Dose and add water each day by hand. I do have a doser and 2 different brands of ATO systems that are still sealed in their boxes....just old school

Good luck!

Not sure if this is good or not but I have tested my water every other day and here are the results.

That's one intense setup for someone new to the hobby, well done.

How's your tank looking these days, have things been going well ?
