    Good to see a long update. Your son is getting so big. That tanks seem to be hitting their stride. Sps is exploding. I remember back in the day when you were not wanting to keep sps now you look like a pro.

      Thanks man, it seems like as long as I could keep the main parameters steady and just let the tank do it's own thing, it stays on course. Maybe I should carry the same energy to child rearing instead of micro managing, lol.

    Yay new video! CoralVue does have very good customer service. I used to have constant notification from the powerbar but since the new house and upgrading the netgear orbi I haven't had a notification for months. This go around, the satellite orbi unit is hardwire (cat6 cable) to the main unit instead of depending on wifi. I wonder if that made a difference also.

    I have a softie tank that get’s no maintenance whatsoever from me and it honestly does much better that way than when I’m constantly trying to control everything with it. Dosers with the main requirements and some good, established LR and it’s pretty much set it and forget it, minus the top off obviously.

    I really like the individual hydros wifi plugs with my controller. They also do power monitoring. Are you pulling the alkatronic data into your hydros app? Looks like you have a lot of open spots on the x4, need to get into the 0-10v! Check out JB aquatics for accessories for the controller

    What method are you dosing Kalk via?

    • @InappropriateReefer
      @InappropriateReefer  2 года назад +1

      I'm doing the standard way, mix up a batch of fully saturated Kalk, let sit for half a day before use and only use the top, clear part of the solution. I continuous drip/dose it at night when the pH is lower in order to flatten my pH swings. Only issue is with my ATO, it kicks in during the day to replace evaporation so I keep adding freshwater into the tank as I dose Kalk.. I need to adjust my salinity every few days. I may try to find a way to only have the ATO run during a specific period of time.

    • @mattsnook8393
      @mattsnook8393 2 года назад

      The hydros should be capable of regulating the ato around the kalk dosing volume. Might need to switch to hydros components for the ato and need at least two sense ports
