Hello everyone,
I currently have a 14g BioCube that was given to me. I did not start the tank myself and have not started one yet. I am starting a new mixed reef tank very soon, I am just waiting on the tank! I have a 60g tank w/ a 30g refugium, Apex AquaController w/ VDM, 3 AI Sol Super Blue led lights and adding a few more types I just don't know which ones yet, SWC 160 cone skimmer, Eheim 1262 return pump, 2 Tunze 6025.
Question 1: I don't know if I should dose calcium or get a reactor. With my size tank what would be more cost effective in the long run?
Question 2: Should I buy LS or DS and add a few cups of LS? If I buy LS should you get it from the LFS or online? Is the bagged LS any good?
Question 3: I am not sure if I am going to go with a deep sand bed for my refugium or with refugium mud. Is one better than the other?
If anybody has answers to these questions I would greatly appreciate the help in my decision making. TYVM
