So I started to add some SPS to my tank and I figured I better get a doser cause I am kinda lazy and dont want to manual dose. I ordered a Jebao doser from fish-street last Monday and and it arrived last Thursday. I was also getting tired of using a 5 gallon bucket as my ATO reservoir. So I took a 10 gallon fish tank and fit it under the stand instead of the bucket. The tank didn't fit so I used to 2x4s to raise the tank and it fit perfect.



I finally got time to set the doser up today and everything seem to work great. I calibrated all 4 pumps and they all seem to be spot on. I programmed the first 2 pumps for Calcium and Alkalinity as I had them on hand. They are set to dose 12 times a day. Calcium will dose on all the odd hours and alkalinity on all the even hours.




The magnesium bottle is empty as I didn't have any magnesium chloride or sulphate on hand. I have to run out and get some as I am a little low after a water change. Magnesium at 1260.

Here is what my tank area looks like now. Only blue lights are on in the photo.




Now I just need to acquire a few more SPS frags.

Well I am slowly adding to my sps collection. Just picked up a few things from Ryan Erickson. Great guy to deal with.

Collection so far:

- Blue Tenius
- Red Mille
- Cali Tort
- Glow Stick
- Blue Mille (I think)
- Red Planet
- Purple Pocci
- Green Pocci
- Green birdsnest
- bonsai

Maybe another 5 frags, 10 at the most. Will try to get some pictures soon but my camera skills suck.
