The p04 checker is wicket Brett, its way easier than reading those charts.

Yeah I'll be getting the checker for P04 once my kit runs out. The rest of the tests I currently bother with (main 3) don't involve comparing shades of colours...just simple end points so I'll likely stick with ELOS for those.

Regardless of where the levels are at though I went a full day today and barely a green film on the front pane which normally gets it the worst. Progress has obviously been made. Corals are growing faster and shouting 'thanks!'

Mailman paid me a visit today as did the Red Coral fairy. I've got some fiddlin' to do today to take care of my rowaPhos black algae with the BRS HC GFO and appease my laziness with the doser. It's getting a little crowded by my stairs with equipment lol.

Nice please keep updated on the dosing pump i am thinking of switching that way more control over the level vs ca reactor.

Ah yes. Dosing pump is the only way to go.

I've never used a reactor but I've never really wanted to. I don't trust regulators, don't want a pressurized cylinder in the house and like independant control of my params. That's just me but I've loved dosing so far. I just wanted to have the dosing done for me lol.

SWEEEET!!!! Man I wants me one of those units... soon enough mehopes.

Whatcha planning on using for reservoirs?

I've got the standard 1 gallon BRS jugs propped between the studs against the stairs. Gotta keep it ghetto down there.

I'm still banging my head trying to sort out how to mount this doser. I don't want it to stick out from the wall in fear a head will hit it. Looking to see if it can mount flush to the wall...
