Finally setting up my 200g tank!!!
I'll need some massive ca/alk dosing equipment. Will have around 350-400lbs or lr for now, 10 clams, 20 smaller-medium size hard corals, 20 or so softies. I've been dripping 2 gallons of kalk water a day with decent sucess but don't know what to do on the new tank.
I don't have a ton of $$ to spend so I"m stuck with either building a ca reactor or finding a good used one. Or I could build/buy a kalk reactor. Or cheapest would be to build some type of autotop off w/ kalk water. Is there a big differnece between a kalk reactor and a hopmade topoff w/ kalk? I"m not sure which method would work the best for keeping levels up....any suggestions?
