Pretty much. With the lower prices of fuel, you don't see shipping getting any cheaper. Although oddly, I noticed the price of diesel was still $1.20 (a few weeks ago).

1 tbsp per 30-50 gallons is a reasonable place to start. I've used this amount in a dozen different tanks.

Since the shallow depth, you could raise an LED fixture quite high to increase spread and still have plenty of PAR. I would be leaning towards a Hydra 26. What type of corals? If SPS you might...

Certainly, there is no harm in dosing more often. You don't have to dose multiple times per day unless you're going through a lot of solution. If your alkalinity drops 1 dKH (or more) over 24 hours...

Your numbers aren't that bad anymore because the precipitation has already occurred. This is obvious by the low calcium.

I saw that too. I think it looks terrible and I imagine the color separation would be horrible. It will be interesting to see what they look like when people start posting their tanks. :)

Yeah, that's a drawback to LEDs.



So essentially you need more light coming from more directions, not really "supplements" then. In that case, I would recommend 2 Blue Plus and 2 Coral Plus...

I don't think doing waterchanges is your main concern right now. I would be getting test kits right away. Buy good ones - Salifert or Elos. The Hanna Checker for alkalinity is really good (the...

If you like actinic, the UVL Super Actinic can't be beat. It has high PUR. Otherwise, I also like the ATI Blue Plus and Coral Plus bulbs.

I haven't used the ATI Hybrid fixture (so jealous...

MACNA 2016 is in New Orleans. I'm not keen on MACNA with no ocean nearby either. New Orleans sounds like a good plan.
