Hi everyone,
I have a 26g Red Sea Nano Peninsula. It has been running for 5 months, and I finally feel like I am ready for corals (soft and LPS, that is).
Stocking
All in all, not bad IMO. Just have a little raising to do, but I have the means to do so. Please look at the picture below, showing my recommended dosing (using https://reef.diesyst.com/chemcalc/chemcalc.html). Circled in blue you can find the products I am using, which are all SeaChem. I just wanted to see if anyone had any insight on dosing a nano tank in a situation like this. I know some buffers affect multiple nutrients at once, which I am trying to be weary of. Also, how often can I expect to dose like this?
I just want to make sure I am prepared before I pick up some frags, which will go on my frag rack first. I appreciate your time!
(sorry for the blue light)
