Calcium Reactor for the WIN!

So I have been running a calcium reactor for the past 3 years on my tank. 2 years ago was my last water change. I run a refugium with rock and matix pond size media with cheato. I did dose Vodka and Vinegar but stop. I have a overkill skimmer. I have a mix reef tank. SO I decided to send in my water to be tested by triton. Was very pleased with the results. The only thing is my salinity was low so I raised it up. Here is the link to my test.

Thumbs up on the alkalinity reactor.

Congrats Matt. Are you dosing any trace elements with your reactor? You are doing exactly what I am working at. How big is your fug? I notice your low on a few things like Iron. Nothing bad but are you planning on dosing some. I am using the Red sea elements and with a big fug I am dosing a lot of iron which is because the cheato uses it.
Are you doing anything to keep with PH?
 
Yes I am going to dose the few That needs to come up. I am going to start dosing iodine....
Nothing for PH...Thinking about running a 1/2 inch line outside and connect it to my skimmer...My fug is 75% of a 40 breeder....I have 2 40s....one for skimmer and other for refuge....

thanks for the info. A pic would be cool
 
I really wish they would test nitrates too... I hate those titration kits. Half the time I feel like I'm color blind. The difference between colors on the cards is so slight that I can't tell the difference most times.
