    Not sure if it is ULNS, PO4 is 0.03, NO3 is 0, alk is between 8-9 dKH and calcium is 450.

    Bio-pellets, any carbon dosing?

    Asking because of the noticeable growth to the acropora and the coloration.

    It all looks fantastic and I really like your choice of smaller reef fish, well beside the large wrasse.

    I feed twice a day, add 50mL of alkalinity and calcium daily. Every three days I add 50mL of magnesium, 40mL of strontium and 20mL of potassium. I perform a 30 gallon water change once a month with Instant Ocean and I bump up the calcium and magnesium before it goes into the tank.

    Beautiful system.

    ...seems like I'm seeing more folks dosing potassium too...
