It depends on what you are looking to keep, and tank size. I think most folks consider a nano tank will be fine with regular water changes.

Well there are a couple of ways you could go...

Two part dosing using either BRS or similar. Measure the uptake and then drip dose accordingly.

Kalk. Ideally with a PH probe, work out how much your uptake and use a reactor to dose in auto-topoff.

Calcium Reactor. Again with a PH probe. Considering the tank is 30 gallons, it would probably only be needed with an extreme amount of SPS.

Thanks. Want to keep it simple since its only a nano might do Kalk mix in ATO and do 2part
