My hobby pays for itself... Wanna buy some corals I run 4 isolated systems totaling >400g twv... daily decrease of Ca is 20ppm and dKh is 1.5 degrees. Water changes won't keep up with my dosing requirements. I started out small and grew slowly: like 22 years of growing, so money spending has been spread out and lately has been subsidized. My mom runs a nano and despite having unlimited access to all supplements and test kits, I tell her a 10% weekly water change will take care of all of her needs with, by FAR, the least amount of work. Wish it was the same for me .
