Finally have my mixing station plumbed to a reservoir (brute can) in my "coral room". Hooked up my Liter meter 3 with water exchange module. About to do the calibration and get it going.
Few questions:
1. Do I need to worry about temperature one way or the other? Have about 200g of water volume and want to change out about 25g per week. Shouldn't make a difference right? I do mix my salt at the correct temp.
2. Do I need a power head in there for aeration for the same reason above? Such a small amount of new water going in at a time. Figured this wasn't a big deal. Only reason I'd be against this is that I'd have to keep lowering the PH as the reservoir is depleted.
3. How do you deal with your ATO? I figured I could program it through my Apex to only turn on for a few minutes every hour. Hopefully those minutes don't cross over when water is being pulled from the sump. Seemed like the easiest solution to me.
4. Anything else I might be missing? Any problems people have ran into in the past?
