3 month nobb w/ questions :)

all my perams are on the money. i dont test for phosfate or mag. cal was pretty high but thats due to dosing. lfs told me that i done have to dose the tank like i have been. i been testing once a week but going to do it twice since im adding water at least twice a week and dose accordingly.

during the day my water temp is around 80 since i hung my lights and useing a fan during the night its about the same. tonite its a litle higher due to the a/c not on but i have a heater set for 80. so temp is always the same.

 

It's good to hear everything is doing OK. I would not suggest dosing the water unless you have a lot of corals. For now I think you are getting all the levels you need from your salt mix.

Do you use RO/DI water?

 

Are you using a hydrometer or a refractometer to measure your specific gravity/salinity? If you are not using one, a refractometer is a good investment and would be something to look into getting. It is much more accurate than the swing-arm hydrometers. Easier/faster to use too - once you get the hang of it.

 

yes im useing ro/di water and a swing arm atm.
