If u r using led, careful with acclimatizing the scolys as they r pretty sensitive to led par. Try to shade them first before directly intro them to led spectrum.

Thanks for your advice! Will take note of that! :D

I'm using a T5 light, one white one blue. Very low maintenance tank, running on a canister filter. But I still make sure that the livestocks get their nutrients such as Mg, Io, Strontium, Ca etc. Usin

Hi bro, how do you maintain your kh & cal? And how often do you water change? Nsw or salt mix?
I dose calcium supplement and change 10-20% water once a week. Using pure distilled water and Red Sea coral salt mix.

No I don't dose daily. Normally the salt mix would have some calcium too. Dose only when needed. Use a test kit. As Ca and kH are related, overdosing may affect the kH which in turn affect the pH. So be very careful. I'm using Brightwell products. The only thing that I dose daily is Reef Biofuel by Brightwell. Lowers nitrate and phosphate, which is impt for small tanks.high nitrate would cause corals to close up and eventually die. Happened to me before.
