Adam Schaafsma Hey, Adam. No QT currently. Other than holding critters for friends, and I know...maybe risky, I haven’t introduced anything new in a while. The last QT was the copperband, and that’s been a while. If I had the space, I’d definitely set up a coral QT. I suppose I’d do a second AWC pump to bring water from the 40 breeder to the coral QT, then out to waste.
Glad I found your channel from Inappropriate Reefer! Quick random question; do you dose your daily Lanthanum Chloride into a sock, skimmer, or just into the system? Thanks!
telegraham Thanks! Been dosing pure LaCl for years into a 5 micron sock but always wondered if I could just dose direct into the system..might give it a shot sometime!
@@telegraham Yessir, been using it for 5 years. I've got around 900 total gallons of water volume and left unchecked my PO4 runs around .5, so every 2 months I perform two doses of 6ml, 1 week apart, to get PO4 back to a normal level. But I've always wondered about a small daily maintenance dose directly into the system and if it would become harmful..thinking of trying to dose into the skimmer and see how it goes. Your success is giving me confidence to try it out!
I am so impressed with the probe packaging and calibration procedure. How long can the fluid containers that came with the unit be used for verifying data points?
how do you setup auto Ph and Conductivity dosing, I have the Profilux4 and GHL slave doser but cannot figure out how to set up auto Ph dosing using the two
One thing to note you shouldn't use the container the calibration fluid is in. Get a cup or something and add the fluid so you don't contaminate the calibration fluid.
Excellent point, and I always use new fluids. I wouldn’t reuse fluids I had previously opened. Those that shipped with the P4 were trashed. I should have mentioned that. Thank you!
If this is an accurate representation of the Apex salinity probe calibration, the GHL is easier. th-cam.com/video/NyC8x57E5DA/w-d-xo.html No temp probe shuffle and no temp probe coefficient values.
Love to see your QT setup in the future.

That definitely looked easy great video reef Sensei 🙇
Thank you! I’ve calibrated most all of the other controllers out there, and I can say that GHL put some thought into the process. Simple and flexible!
My Hero... setting another one up and straight back here I came :p
Always happy to help, kind sir! 👍
Video was very helpful. Thanks man!
Glad it helped!
This video help me a lot, thank you sir
Glad it helped!

Thanks! I daily dose directly (0.4mL) into the frag tank. A sock would be ideal, but I roll barefoot. 👍

Cool to know there are others out there! You’ve had success?

Pour a little out for testing, and the remainder will last 3-6 months. So, three months.

Have you calibrated the apex salinity probe? If so which one is “easier”?
If this is an accurate representation of the Apex salinity probe calibration, the GHL is easier. th-cam.com/video/NyC8x57E5DA/w-d-xo.html No temp probe shuffle and no temp probe coefficient values.
Why did my Profilux come with 4? And 7 ?
Hit them up, but I assume that to be a mistake. pH 4 and 7 calibration solutions are for the KHD.
How u like it couse I can see u have used Neptune too ?!
My favorite!
Just got my P4. Thanks for the help. Keep up the good work. @iansreef
Enjoy!
What is „rodi“ rinse in rodi?
Clean water. Not sink water. Filtered water generally used in the aquarium.
