Supplements
Calcium
Kalkwasser
Trace elements
I'm adding Calcium with my Vertex Rx6 Duo to reach at least 400ppm
I'm adding Knop kalk via top offs
I'm doing 5% water change weekly to restore all the trace elements

Maintenance
its simple, my maintenance is done once a week. every mondays to be exact
-I start by changing the socks, putting the dirty ones to the laundry with no soap
-Removing 5% of water, and then putting the new salt mix back to the tank. Using Instant Ocean salt
-cleaning my skimmer's cup
-cleaning my glass with a Algae Free Tiger Shark Float Cleaning Magnet with also my JBJ cleaning set
Once a month
-changing carbon media
-changing GFO
-flushing my RODI membrane
Heres my waterchange station
