i do 7 gallons a week on my 210
been doing this for over 2 years now
also changing 100 percent of your water every 3 weeks i hope you are testing your new salt each time you open a new bucket said:
Sure. Because you have a reef tank and I have a seahorse tank. The inhabitants eat 2 cubes of PE Mysis twice daily. They're piggies!
I don't make my own salt water I buy it from the LFS. I only test for salinity. They use Tropic Marin salt. I recently
tested it for mag and found the lvls at 1150 so I'll be getting an Alk test and testing for Cal,Alk and Mag and dozing as needed to make sure everything is up to stronger lvls.
I run a Coralife Super Skimmer rated for 65g on it. I have a DSB of 4-8" and a refugium with slacking macroalgae with a dsb.
Yup smaller works though. 10g every other day or two is working fine. I just had to find something that worked for this tank. Thanks for the input guys."]well maybe its just me but a good cleanup crew would do a good job that would allow you less waterchanges at least save you some monies
thanks for the fast reply
