Recurring Time Investment

Time spent is usually equal to output quality.
Mixed reefs required attention, but time is irrelevant to the serious hobbists.

Preach uncle99! I work from home and I am always doing something fish related (I say fish related because it doesn't always directly affect the DT).

I am preparing for adding more SPS to my setup so I can trying to calculate depletions of ALK/CAL/MAG so I can setup my dosing regiment properly. I measure ALK multiple times per day right now to try to get it dialed in. Once I have a good number of ml/hour to dose, I will start doing with my doser and measure once per day just to make sure that everything is in line with what I want to keep my reef. Then will repeat the cycle for CAL/MAG. I know I can do them at once, but makes me better understand MAG affects on ALK/CAL doing it this way I think. My MAG is holding steady right now.

With all that said, I still am learning everyday something new. Again, not that it is always something that directly affects the DT in it current state, just learning more daily.

My plan is to have a thriving mixed reef. Wish it could happen over night, but we all know how that goes.
