Update Aug 2
This is a short update.
1. I had a chance to use DDH20 salt. If you are considering the ultralith system: DO NOT use this salt. It is not compatible with this system. 95 % of SPS's all browned out or lost their color. This is not a bad salt...just not for Ultra users. I have switched back to Coralife
2. There are now 250 MH's on the main system with 4 t5 HO's
3. The skimmer was upgraded to a Vertex 180
4. There was a major accident in the tank(lost 75% of the volume) due to a bad check valve and a bad storm. I had to refill the tank using DDH2O. Note the loss of color happen before this accident. Lost several colonies because of stress, temp etc. The system is stable but far from normal
5. All additives dosing have remained the same. I have started dosing with Ultra Amin at the rate of 5 ml per day
6. Pictures when the system heals
