A lot of changes in the Saltwater Reef tanks. First I have Taken most of the Bulk Reef Supply Kalkwasser out of the Auto Top Off Reservoir. I am trying to get my Parameters Dialed in. With Kalkwasser I really didnt have a lot of control. Kalkwasser is great, but I had so much that didnt dissolve. I had a Tunze pump that would kick on and stir the solution but it still was a lot. I tested with RedSea Kits, and my numbers would be high all the time. The next this is I took down my 45 gallon SCAQUARIUMS CUBE, and broke down the 10g Frag Tank. It was a cool tank, but it was a lot of water combined with my 120g. So for now, I am going back to a nano tank. I also set up my Jebao Doser DP4 to help UPDATE OF THE 120G/45GCUBE NANO REEF TANK SC AQUARIUM ALL IN ONE CORAL REEF TANKS! Thanks for watching Make Sure to LIKE/SUBSCRIBE!

I also got the DP-4 and I really like it. It's been running for about a month now. I use one pump for the top-off in my 29g, delivering 80ml of fresh water 10X per day. For alk, I use Reef Carbonate and put 25ml into 8 litres of the top-off water in the large water container that originally had spring water in it from the grocery store. So my 29 gets about 8-10ml of added carbonate per day. This has been working perfectly, keeping the alk at about 8.3.
The other 3 pumps on the DP-4 are used for calcium, magnesium, and potassium in the 20g nano. I scored some plastic food storage containers on aliexpress for about $8 ea. They are square and stackable, have flat lids, and hold roughly 2 litres of liquid each. So they are perfect for dosing.
I had my doubts about dosing but I'm a convert because it seems to be helping keep things stable and I can keep the water changes smaller. I guess we all find what works for each of us eventually.
I will build the sump myself with 3 filter socks 7" rings open concept.
