snookman03 Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 I am going to start dosing 2 part just wondering if anyone has some input on using aqualifters as dosers. Clam has had some growth The chalices are really starting to take off My new favorite sps piece...any idea on an ID Thanks for looking!!! Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I am going to start dosing 2 part just wondering if anyone has some input on using aqualifters as dosers. It's best if you have a controller if you do that, or a digital timer. Analog timers usually only come on in 20 minute intervals. That's approximately 1,466mL, a bit more than most people dose in a month. Link to comment
snookman03 Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 Thanks Ben. I have been doing some research and my worry is one of the timers failing and over dosing the tank! I guess it's a slim chance if I get a quality timer... Link to comment
snookman03 Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 Just placed an order from Bulk Reef Supply...2 part kit, a BRS reactor, carbon, GFO, and some RODI fittings. I finally set up a utility sink in my garage and mounted my RODI. I am going to build a shelf for my Brute trash cans to the left of the sink. Tomorrow I will be heading to a few LFS for some more SPS!!! Thanks for looking... Link to comment
snookman03 Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 BRS order is in and reactor installed! Picked up an antenna goby at the lfs today but all of my fish were picking on him so I turned the lights off. I hope he makes a burrow soon. I need to pick up a good calcium test kit ASAP as I have a BRS 2 part kit just sitting in the closet...totally forgot the test kit at the lfs today. Link to comment

Thanks for the compliment I have been adding Red Sea reef energy for about a week and I think I am starting to notice a change in the corals color. Everything is really coloring up nicely.

snookman03 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 Finally got my water situation in check...before I constructed this setup I had the brutes outside and I had to carry my Rodi outside too, what a pita that was lol. Thanks for looking. Link to comment
snookman03 Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 Just did a water change using the new setup. It is really nice to use the valves to fill up my buckets instead of scooping the water out of the trash cans with the buckets lol. Link to comment
