Calcium chloride can be dissolved at a higher concentration than sodium bicarbonate. I pretty much mix as much in as will stay in solution. BTW water parameters are tested regularly and dosages adjusted appropriately.

Great to see you finally featured Rob! Your system is so much better designed than mine!

I'm pretty happy for you getting the boat too. You've been talking about doing that and shutting down the tank for years. Its hard to believe its actually happening.

Rob,
Which salt have you been using?

Congrats. Great looking colorful healthy reef tank. Good work.

By the way, to the webpage editors, the first sentence needs some editing...it says: "Congratulations to Reefer Rob for being selected as Canreef's Featured Tank of the Month for April 2010." It should say "October 2010".

Congratulations Rob! Very nice tank!

I was surprised to see you have 2 out of 3 of my most prized SPS corals that are prized not only for their coloration, but because I haven't seen them elsewhere! Bah!!! :p
