    Beginner 2 part dosing question

    I just did a re-read of these posts and realize you have a 4 inch clam. Your ALK and CALC demand are going to be considerable more than just having a couple corals. Clams really suck that stuff up. So you definitely want to do daily testing until you figure out the ALK and CALC demand...

    Beginner 2 part dosing question

    3 ounces seems like a ton.....although you said you diluted it. What was your dilution. I personally believe in slowly creeping up your numbers, instead of “ripping” them up to some dKh. If it was “normal” B-Ionic concentration, I would be looking at something between 5 – 10 mls per...

    Beginner 2 part dosing question

    You want to add the ALK part......sodium carbonate (or potentially sodium bicarbonate). The other part, CALC, is calcium chloride. EDIT TO ADD: Yes, you only want to dose Alkalinity (I think Part 1 or A is what B-Ionic calls it). Continue to test frequently to hopefully see Calc drop...

    DIY Nano Cube Stand

    Someone on another board asked the question on how I was going to fit the MP10 controller through that small hole. I can’t remember who (maybe Fish Brain), told me about MP40’s, and how you could simply open up the controller and unplug the wires so that you could pass them through a hole...

    DIY Nano Cube Stand

    George, thanks for the offer, but I have plenty of jugs. I’m currently using OceanSpray gallon juice jugs for the pumps on my big tank. I also store my alk and calc in these same jugs. When I originally started dosing, the intent was to simply switch out a jug when it got low. However...

    DIY Nano Cube Stand

    I was able to pick up two BRS dosing pumps (thanks Olivier), and install them on a bracket in the front of the stand. In addition, because of the ATO and dosing pumps, I needed to make room in the ReefKeeper PC8, so for any piece of equipment that simply needed to be plugged in, I added a...

    Any special instructions on PayPal'ing the registration money? I just registered and it said to now go to PayPal, but that was it....no further instruction. How do I send it and any extra verbiage in the comment section??? You know I'm easily confused!

    Whats the difference between DI resins

    I actually haven’t seen the product, but you do need both to “clean” your water. I like the fact that they sell them split, because I have a two chamber DI unit…… one for the anionic portion and the other for the cationic portion. If you only have a single chamber DI unit, you will want to...
