6 hrs a day, i.e. 1/4 of the time running... is that a good figure? Looks good to me (newbie).. :peace:

What is so good about Grotech additive is it is economical but the ease of using is not comparable to tropic marine.

One of the best way to add Grotech additive is to siphon out one portion of water and mix with the additive with a pump and pour it back. not only it will not cloud the tank and it will not affect the tank inhabitant.
