OK so I've been in this hobby for some time now hopefully this will help me understand.
Ive always just used additives to dose into my tank to keep things stable however Im not at home all the time and keeping things stable can be hard.
I'm thinking hard about purchasing a calcium reactor however my understanding is FIRST they are really expensive and secondly I worry about overdosing and third I dont understand what I need to set one up without really screwing up.
Ive also considered a drip method however can't that overdose also?
I have been using Instant Oceans test kits along side Aquarium Pharmaceuticals which I now understand is not they greatest test kits out there.
I want too purchase one Large test kit that can test everything for around 100 bucks
I want to test the following
Alk
Cal
Trates
PH
phosphates
can someone guide me?
thanks for lookin in
