Now that I've got some LPS corals in my tank I'm getting what I need to monitor additional levels in my tank and want to have on hand what I'll need to dose.
I'm ordering the Red Sea kit that will allow me to test for mag, alk, and cal. I wanted to go ahead and order any supplements I would need to hopefully avoid additional shipping charges in the near future. (I don't have much of an option in terms of LFSs)
My problem is that I'm not quite sure what I'll need. I know not to dose anything I can not test for and because of that have only added supplements for dosing each mag, cal, and alk. I'm not sure if or what supplements might be better than others, so any advice there would be great. Or if there is more of a combination supplement that would make things easier.
I obviously don't know my cal, mag, and alk levels yet so am unsure of if I'll even need to dose yet. I'll have to learn more about the actual dosing process when its time.
I'm currently using Instant Ocean salt mix. I was thinking of upgrading now because of the corals I have. Any suggestions there would be great. I also do at least a weekly PWC and do more if/when needed.
Advice on what I need to look into ordering and even preferred brand suggestions I would really appreciate.
I'm feeling pretty lost on this topic at the moment.
