Bubbles Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Thought I'd get a thread going where people post what and when they do things to their tanks. Would be interesting to look at the different ways we all manage our tanks. I'll go first 540L tank + 60L sump - Water change - 10% weekly ASW Red Sea - Prodibio Biodigest - 1 ampule forthnightly - Prodibio Bioptim - 3 ampules forthnightly - Prodibio Strontium - 1 ampule weekly - Prodibio Reef Boost - 2 ampules per week - Iodine - 10 ml per week - Bag of carbon - change every 4 weeks - Bag of rowaphos - change every 4 weeks - Calcium and alkilinity supplements - CA Reactor - 8L per day fresh water topoff - dosing pump on timer - Skimming - 2 x Berlin classics (about to be pimped, but that's a whole new thread) EDIT: Clean collection cup every other day - Clean front glass - every other day Post away people.

Bubbles Posted November 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Bubbles why do you change your rowaphos so often? must cost you heaps I haven't started using RO/DI yet (have the unit but need some fittings), so I use it to help with the 'pure' tapwater. Also, I only use a little bit at a time. It's good stuff IMHO but like you said not cheap. I've used an alluminium based P04 remover and my soft corals hated it, so Rowa is worth it just for that.
