Yea 2-3 days and 22Engine your right on the money. It's good to let the tank settle a little then start adding again lol.

Are you dosing? Sorry OP. you can just PM me or if the OP doesn't mind, maybe it will help out? More corals=more coral growth and then more calcium being depleted from the system along with alk.

I am not dosing anything as of right now. Was going on your advice of water change with good salt mix you really don't need to. I did just order that clam stand from inTank. That's the only thing going in for a little bit. Other than the new filtration to replace the stuff that's turning bad. I want to save money and get the clam and zoa's together for my project.

I don't care guys talk away. It's always a learning experience anyway. 22 for me it's easier to spend more money on hunting than the tank haha! Almost dove season here the time to get ready for some whitetail!

Nice 22!! I knew you could do it! Guess I'll be doing the same! The Tunze is officially outta the tank! Temp dropped too! NICE all around!! Good stuff brother.

Also yes, I was just curious if you had started dosing anything. My advice stands

I did start since my levels were a little on the low side at last test and coral growth has seemed to kick into high gear. I have the B-ionic 2 part. I'm just gonna start slow and keep testing to bring it back to 480.

My monti has exploded!!

Emailed the guy and he said he has a small rock with three if the red mushrooms left that are ready to go and I can have it for 25. Told him I would be there Thursday lol. But this is def it. He also said i could have a small Kenya tree for free that he has cause mine doesn't look like it will make it.
