Can't really answer that becos: * As you can see, mine is a 4 footer & i have never try it on 3 feet tank. * It also depend on ambient temp, heat load, etc.. * As for the noise, I think is acceptable.

The fastest & most cost effective way to raise mg (for me) is to use Epson Salt. It can be purchased from NTUC or Guardian. One box of epson salt cost about $3+ & it can increase mg level by about 100ppm for a 4*2*2! cannot remember exactly but you can refer to http://ozreef.org/diy/magnesium_additive.html. Hope this help.

Bio balls are out-dated, & are considered nitrate factory. Try DSB & more LRs.

IMO, just concentrate on completing the cycle. What is your purpose of dripping kalk now?

Yes! it try to swallow my green chromis, when I realise, it was too late, the fish was barely alive. IMO, not a good coral to have.

I'm using plastic bucket to store my pre-mix salt water, sometime up to 2 weeks. No problem ...

I presume is ceramic ring. You should remove it slowly & at the same time, monitor your water parameters. The other thing to consider is whether your tank can handle the bioload w/o the cr & biohome that you are going to remove.
