so im re-stocking up on my test kits and dont want to get anything i dont need and dont want to get anythng i wont use.
so heres the scenario:
pretend i have everything, fish, corals, lps sps, softies leathers, whatever, the works, i dont know what im going to get fish wise still making the list and refining it. but i want to get a wide variety of evetyrthing, i have a 55g rectangle and a 46 g bow front, 55 with 45 lbs of LR and 46 with 55 lbs of LR. the 46g is my main display takn, dimensions are better -=] but yeah so im planning on getting PH,Ammonia,calcium and idk what else i should get (nbitrate and nitrrite are based off ammonia so idk how important they reallly are..)
Magnesium?
phosphate?
strontum?
silicate?
KH/ALK?
iodine/iodide?
whats necessary? and what should it be?
also how often should i test and what should these levels be?
calcium 350-450
ammonia 0
ph 7.8-8.2
nitrite nitrate 0
thats all i know about the testing and what is ideal for my tank
my levels are
calcium 410
ammonia .50
i have ph booster, purple up and amquel nitrite-ate ammonia remover, also liquid calcium.
what buffers would you recommend? use? do you have a schedule on when you usually use them?
