Big Tank = lot of work
Mistakes in construction = even more work
Where we are now ? Well. Bought 8 new P300 V4 from orphek.Very nice lights. Corals opening first day. My light got broken because of the salty huminity. Was not bad but no this good as the Orpek. Different level. Deep tanks of 1 mtr. No pribkrm at all.

no. I was really stressed to get all under control after the maincrash. Now trying to increase Kh and CA. I am dosing so much and it does't imincrease. Only PH which is near to 8.4. After all parameters are stable, than i will start with fishes and corals. Lost so much money now, because of not knowing and constructiion mistakes.
Ayyy did not saw that Cigars Pic was added. Phone went off Battery. Btw. The box is a humidor
I am Dosing daily in the Tank of Net 6600 Liter almost 1.7 liter of
Calciumchlorid-Dihydrat, Natriumhydrogencarbonat. Basis is Balling. It cannot be with so less Cirals that the consumption is so high. Also this daily up downs in KH and CA
