dferrari13 Posted October 20, 2018 Author Share Posted October 20, 2018 Im going to be cleaning out my ATO today...yay so much fun...uggg😫...anyways I use a 50/50 vinegar and distilled water mix to run through the ato tube inorder to get rid of all the kalkwasser left over crud and stuff....this also helps to clean out the pump itself and increase pump life. (But i alway stock a replacement) Every now and then, when I get lazy, and I don't clean the pump,... it will get clogged and I'll have to blow through the tube to release some crud and then the pump starts working again....but I'm sick of doing that and it's time to clean it properly. 1 Quote Link to comment
alexandre Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Good point, I am more or less new to reefing. Now you make me think, I should clean my ATO pump and hose. Thanks you for that. And really nice nano by the way. I was following your journal about the clam. I really but really want one. I had one, 20 years ago. And that was my favourite animal in the tank. So now, I know, thanks to you. Don't go for the small one :). At that time wasn't any clam under 10cm. Same for coraux, frags didn't existe. 1 Quote Link to comment
Reeferadicto13 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 How much kalk you mix in to your ato and how long it last? 1 Quote Link to comment

I mix 1.5 teaspoons (Brightwell kalk+2) per gallon of distilled water... at first I only dosed 1 teaspoon per gallon but I have increased my dosing slowly due to consumption by the corals (mainly by the SPS) I use a 2 gallon ATO tank and it lasts about 10 to 12 days in new jersey...but in the summer when it's really hot.... evaporation happens more frequently, so 2 gallons of top off water only lasts about 9 to 10 days.

dferrari13 Posted October 22, 2018 Author Share Posted October 22, 2018 Just watched a video about montipora eating nudibranchs and I'm so happy that I haven't had any. Looks like a pain to treat. Quote Link to comment

Sorry to hear that man. Yea I think I'm done, however I've been thinking of fragging my frogspawn from 6 to 2 heads. That will give me some more room. 😉 2 Quote Link to comment

I'll try to find it but I think it was on reef builders...he used a water pick normally used to clean teeth... to blast them off Quote Link to comment
