    Salt water mix question

    are you sure it doesn't say mix 4 hours prior to adding it to your tank? that would make more sense. on another note i stopped doing water changes ever since i added a bio pellet reactor.

    New to reefing...

    you can get away with the return pump flow and wave maker to start. SPS is what requires a ton of flow. you can always place higher flow requiring corals directly in front of the return pump output or wave maker.

    Rodi system

    i personally use the BRS 6 stage system. i love having 2 DI containers. you don't have to worry about changing them as soon as the media is used up since you have a whole second canister. i change my first chamber once the second chamber starts to change color. this is something you could always...

    Carbon setup flow

    unless the two media has the same flow requirement and can be changed at the same rate, i would keep them separate. personally i like to have everything separate unless its specifically designed to be mixed with something else.

    Dual chamber CA reactor question

    When was the last time you calibrated the pH probe in the ca reactor? I have the same reactor on my 60G and it keeps it very steady.

    Anyone here use the Apex Leak Sensor?

    I think the carpet one is designed to go under the carpet. The solid surface has some weight to it to hold it down vs the under carpet one which is slim to fit under carpet and be held down by the carpet

    Do I need an air pump in my reef tank.

    +1 Skimmers are not a must, but almost everyone will agree they are highly beneficial to sw tanks and I've never known anyone to not have one. If you have one or get one you don't need an air stone.
