I am setting up a 150gal with dry rock (fully cooked in the right way with acid, bleach and prime), bare bottom, with 10L of Sera Siporax and some rock on the sump. I am using Red Sea Pro salt. Planning for SPS tank. I am doing WWC and BRS 4 months cycle.
I used Dr Tim's Ammonium Chloride for fishless cycle (follow instruction), along with MB7 (follow instructions). Tank is only has skimmer running, light still off. After 25 days in cycles, today I do the first test and here is the result.
Salinity: 1.026
PH: 7.83
Temp: 80F
NO3: 24 (new red sea test kit)
PO4: 0.13 (new red sea test kit)
Ammonia NH3/NH4: 0 (new red sea test kit)
Mag: 1700 or more
Cal: 380
Alk: 9.3
What should I do now?
Should I let it alone until add fish at 2 months in or start dosing and add stuff to correct the parameters?
Please advise in details. I really appreciate.
Happy Reefing.
