Really nice setup. Looks like you are doing well with the AI Sols.

Is that a kalk stirer?

How's just one mp10 working for you? I am debating getting another one for my 40 breeder

Thank you. yeah the sols are great. I just took the kalk stirrer out of line and am not using it anymore and I haven't got around to taking it out of the stand. It wasn't doing much and I'm having much better luck dosing. I made the mistake of using api test kits and came really close to crashing this build but went out of town for two weeks and me being away saved the tank. I think one mp10 works good for me, I rarely turn it up past 60%. If I turn it up to high my ricordeas blow around. What part of indiana are you from? I'm in Fort wayne

I'm from south bend.

I'm glad I didn't go with a kalk reactor. I am manually dosing.

I think I'm going to go with another mp10 eventually. My tank is primarily sps so the more flow the better.

You have a stocking list?

The kalk stirrer worked great on my 29 but on this set up It didn't seem to do anything. I'll post a list of live stock soon, I need to sit down and update some new stuff. I might sell my ricordeas so I can boost the flow in my tank, I have one larger one that isn't attached to anything and blows around a lot.

 

 

Very nice!

Thanks a lot! I'm a fan of your tank as well, I've checked it out several times.

 

 

Looks awesome! I miss my 40!

 

Thank you, did you down or upgrade?

 

 

Very Cool! Are going to switch to balling? I just got all the gear for balling on my 40 yesterday.

 

Thanks, I've been looking around at auto dosers but have minimal knowledge about balling. I am certainly interested in automating everything but I need to get a better handle on the dosing needs for this tank. I picked up a red sea ca/alk/mag test kit and it has immediately fixed a lot of problems I had, I'll never go back to api. What did you spend on your balling set up?
