MedRed Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Brs dosers? Anyone? Or the bubble magus doser... But it has 3 and I would use 2... But then has the controllability... I use the bubble magus. It makes dosing magnesium easy. Link to comment
d'Espresso Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Hey Tron, Everything looking good over your way! I gotta say i am loving florida, finally have moved in for about 3 weeks now. So much LFS around here and very close to one another. I can't wait to get back into reefing. Is there anything else i need to know about florida and LFS? Link to comment
SouthFlorida_Tron Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 I use the bubble magus. It makes dosing magnesium easy. How's the controller? Simple to use? With brs I'd need a timer for the 1.1ml a minute.... With the bubble magus I just program how much per day? Hey Tron, Everything looking good over your way!

Is there anything else i need to know about florida and LFS? Shop around, prices and corals vary from shop to shop.... And as always use caution lol.... Glad to see you enjoying the sunshine!

CarrillXXP Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I really do hate looking at you tank journal, it pisses me off that my tank doesn't look as nice as yours . I remember a while back you were talking about the color of you AI and how you wanted more, are you going to stay with LED's and just wait for the new AI? Link to comment

With the bubble magus I just program how much per day? With the bubble magus you program what time of day and how many ml's for each container. It's really simple. You can manually dose as well. I know some of the other dosers like the profilux allow you do dose the same chemical more than once a day. I dose alk at midnight, cal at 8 pm, and mag at 4pm. I think I dose the same amount of alk and cal, but my mag is at a lower number. Dosers are expensive, but make dosing so much easier. Link to comment

Ya I decided to stay with the ai after seeing incredible results live on side by side comparisons of the sol vs radion tested with the apogee par meter... Radion also ended up croaking from salt creep at the LFS. With the bubble magus you program what time of day and how many ml's for each container. It's really simple. You can manually dose as well.

So y adding it at different times? Link to comment
CarrillXXP Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 It really seems like Dave and AI are the best of the best in the LED industry (without going DIY). The growth, color, and quality are just top notch. I need to make more money. I need a sugar momma'. Link to comment

Now that I've remounted the light to an appropriate 12", this thing covers the tank so nicely, and I'm able to utilize the power better... Ahhhh. I love it when I get a break to peruse tank builds Please enjoy the fruits of your labor. Link to comment
