What do you dose to maintain water parameters

[chromiumlux]

What does everyone use to replenish Alk, Calcium, Etc....? What are your methods and what has worked best for you in your tanks?

[marinelife]

I use a CA Reactor and every now and then add magnesium and potassium

[chromiumlux]

I use Warner Marine 2-part, Mag, Potassium and a smidge of strontium. Will probably consider a ca reactor if and when I get this 150g I got my eye on.

[TechGuy40]

I either do a 20% water change every Saturday, and a Kalk drip. Thats it! If I miss a water change I had Strontium, and a touch of Iodide. I need to get a CA reactor, but they are so expensive.

Water changes and a little coral vites dodd tought me how not to be a chemist

kalk reactor via ato

[coral ranch]

We dose calcium, magnesium, alkalinity, and a little Iodide to the zoanthids

[rayviv]

Can we explore this more?

I'm afraid due to lack of knowledge. Im at the point just pass the 'undecided' mark as to dose or not dose. Trying to observe any changes in the tank when I do/do not dose. But I don't believe that I've dosed enough time/quantity to make a difference.

Tech1>strotium>calcium is what I've used.

[Aquatic Specialists]

We have a calcium reactor, and dose Strontium, molybdenum, and super iodide.

We dose 2-part to maintain Alk, Cal, and Mag. We have been slowly improving the overall water quality the last couple weeks trying to dial in the new system. On 12/09/09 we had Alk at 8 DKH, Calcium around 480, and Mag was at 1250. This was with water at 76F and salinity at 1.026 according to the swing arm. Still want the Alk a little higher but we are taking time to get there.
