Yesh bro... calcium abit on the low side... haf been dosing alot since... but cant keep up with my tank requirement...

tt's y just got a CR... WOOHOOO.... but i dunno how to set it up yet... :( still figuring it out.... till then... dosing is being done...

cheers

How often u change water? What brand u using for salt? I have more sps than u but i have never had problems with calcium nor a need to start using back my CR.

i change water abt 1.5weeks once... using NSW.. i hate saltmix cos too troublesome...

yea had a problem with my CR.. dunno how to use... :(

i just wan to haf a more stable parameters... tt's y i use a cr... then hope the SPS can haf a faster growth rate..

i notice the SPS would actually grow at a faster rate when i actually dose more calcium into the tank....

tt's y i hope a cr installed will enhance the sps growth rate... :D

i hope to see if the 10K will help in your growth of SPS... coz im using 14KK (250W) + 2x24 (actinic and blue plus).

Growth seemed to be slower than i like...

i'm also going back to dosing and planning to plug in my KR (just bought from bro shootsimon who sadly had to decomm) within these few weeks.

Yes bro, im planning to get a KR now.. trying to understand it's functions...

but sad to say, i really dun like the colour of the 10K bulb...

im thinking of changing back to 14K already... or reeflux or megachrome...

still trying to understand more before buying another bulb....

10K is more yellowish...but its good for growth...you can incorporate actinic or giessmann fiji purple.

Some reefers lower yr MH lighting by 1-2 inches...but will cause yr chiller to kick in more often..i think.

Magnesium will be complementary in maintaining yr calcium level.
