Have you made a dosing Decision?

Still undecided but may try the triton core 7 for other methods. The one thing i took from the meeting was the fuge needs to be 15 to 20% of total tank volume which in my case would be 22 to 30 gallons i dont have the room for that. But i am willing to try out there products.

You know, I've been thinking about this a bit...

Until your tank has enough demand that you're really pouring in the 2 part, I would just use brs 2 part. It's going to be a long while before you're pouring 200ml or more of each in your large display volume.

I think you're looking at months if not a year before you're dosing enough to make enough of a dent in disrupting the natural ionic balance of seawater to make going with the expensive core 7 worth it.

And honestly, if you're planning on doing monthly water changes, I doubt it will ever really matter. If you're trying to run the triton method, in that you dont want to do ANY water changes, then maybe their system would make sense.

I think Sean makes a lot of sense and you can try Triton down the line. Remember Trition makes the Core 7 products for non-refugium tanks as well. So you don't have to have a fuge

I will have a fuge just not one to the size percentage of what triton recommends.
 
Back to the topic at hand filled the tank to check level and check plumbing for leaks no leaks found time to drain and get ready for rocks
