WOW! Great video! Blown away! I know you have a method but is this for beginners? I am not new to reefs but beginners as in dosing kalk? Do I need a huge barrel of water too? I have 3 tanks and wan to start with my small 20g aio first. Ionly have room for possibly a 5 gallon container. I live infl as well so top of by hand. I am fixing to hook up an ato but Dosnt evaporate much. Is it going to work in a tank that dosnt evaporate much? I have no apex but was going to buy a ph controller! is it possible to do in ato water top off I even hand dose my alk and all. But going to buy dosers! I just bough all for reef but got me to thinking about it lowering my ph since I use soda ash which that all got me into looking into different ways to up ph. Very slow growth! Plus teeny tiny frags coming n from CB! lol No way to drill a hole as this tank is in kitchen and long way from any walls to outside! Plus Tampa fl humidity and having lawn sprayed! kalk is the only way being in kitchen and an aio no sump ect!

The burping thing doesn't make sense to me. I've seen tridacna clams completely out of water in the wild during low tide, so if they can't get rid of air then that population would have gone extinct.
@Reefscom5 күн бұрын
@zakarymcleod1850 i hear you. I'm sure that the case isn't very often. I have covered it on my other clam video, but I wanted to explain. From what I have heard, clams, when stressed enough, won't be able to expel air out of themselves, which in turn will turn fatal for them. Since we spend a good amount on these beautiful animals, and want the best possible outcome for these beautiful animals, any precautions that we can take to make proper acclimation and make the adjustment easier for the animals, people gravitated towards it. While, mostly unnecessary, I think it's a good habit. Thanks for watching the video and leaving a comment!

How is spread of the LED? I have a very, very short tank. Currently running on SeaTorch Bar. While it works great. It is lacking ability to reduce power. Some part of corals burned out. it's Stack-up System, with short Water Depth as well as Short Height in General. It was designed to fit Bar LED for SeaTorch. So it very space saving and design to keep Zoa, SPS. Everything is well. Except I hate that it doesn't have App & Intensity reducer. Tanks are not suitable for any other LED. Except from may be this Straton & possible Flex Version of Straton.

Burping is a complete myth and completely unnecessary. Clams in the wild are completely exposed to air during low tide for hours. FW dip should only be performed on a clam suffering from PMD, it has no benefit other than treating PMD.

It's just amazing, I just discover your method last night. On my side I use calcium reactor for my 380 gal reef tank. Did you have negative effects at the beginning when you adjust for the proper dosing of kalk? From what I understand with your method, I should disconnect my calcium reactor and use only kalk for a better result? Do you add kalk at night only, all time or twice a day? Is there a danger for calcium precipitation if you add too much too fast? Thanks for your advice

Sold mine for reefi, colors of the straton is ugly to yellowish l and results are more bad than my previous radions, or orphek. Und reefi the corals colored again better. And they are way to expensive for what they do. They lack also of pop and the blue is not nice, to much power in the white and not enough in the blue. The only good things is the design and not strong side glare. In Germany man sell it again
@ReefscomАй бұрын
Hmmm, that's strange because it was pretty blue to me when I cranked these up 100 percent intensity on all channels to test the overall spectrum. On spectrumeter, it registered a bit more bluer hues, low in reds, yellow, and I think this was so because they don't have any warm white led diodes in them. Either way, the good thing is that you have choices to go with if the colors are not up to your liking. I'm glad to hear that you have found your light in reefi. I have heard many good things about them.
