Separately Microelements or Component ABC

michmo · Sep 28, 2016

Hi,
I have a Calcium Reactor and in the moment i dose the Iodum strontium, fluorine, kalium, iron, microS in a 450l tank with full acroporas, is that ok or is better to dose component ABC.
Thanks

Lets get some help for you..... @Perry

Hello,
Component ABC + Kalium is a plug and play for trace, it can be automated with doser. You are dosing individually, which is another option, this gives you the ability to have more control over your trace. Either way works just fine, but not to use both

Great, thank you

If you are using a doser with limited pumps, would the components make more sense? Not sure you could use one doser for all of the individual elements as you would need a lot of pumps. I am about to switch AFI products so following along.

You are correct.

Easy way to think is like this:

Component 123= Balling Lite method which has Alk, Ca, Mag and all trace needed. Plug and Play for all mineral and trace mineral. Designed to automate with 3 channel doser, or manually added in equal parts.

Component ABC+Kalium= Automated trace mineral, plug and play, need 3 dosing head to automate, where Kalium manually added. Designed for automation and used along side a Calcium Reactor, or other program where main minerals are being managed.

Iodum, Strontium, Kalium, Flourine, Iron, & Micro E = Individually dosed trace mineral targeted for daily dosing, these are designed for the person who enjoys tinkering and wants to have more control over trace. Designed as a supplemental daily dosing program to use along side of Calcium Reactor, or other program where main minerals are being managed.
