Hi All,
I am considering having a full sps reef in my RSM650. Currently, I have about 7 frags in there at the moment which are doing well so I'm feeling a bit bold and decided that maybe I should go all out with a coloured stick tank (with an LPS here and there) :spinner:
At present, I am manually dosing Ca, Alk and Mg to the tank according to consumption. I want to get a dosing pump to dose these (and any other like NOPOX etc) once the coral start growing out and I add more frags but would this be enough?
Do I need to invest in a kalkstirrer and a carx reactor instead of dosing (what would the benefit of this be if choosing this instead of dosing)? Is there any other equipment that I need to consider to maintain a full sps reef (apart from additional powerheads for flow)?
Future equipment that I am looking at getting are:
- 2 MP40s
- Dosing pump (will look at extra heads for the RSM colours program, NOPOX etc)
- Ozone Reactor
- Maybe a controller (Reef Angel or other).
Thanks in advance!
